8.When you reach the Select Printer screen, look for your printer's URL (which you noted in step 1) in the Printer Name column.

●If you find the right name, scroll sideways if necessary to see the Connection Type column, and check that it shows IP Printing. Then highlight that line. Otherwise, continue searching further down the list.

●If you cannot find your printer's name with an IP Printing connection type, check the box My printer is not in the list.

Click Continue.

Connect a computer to the printer by USB cable (Mac OS X)

You can connect your printer directly to a computer without going through a network, by using the printer's built-in Hi-Speed USB device port. A USB connection may be faster than a network connection, but it has some disadvantages that you should bear in mind:

●The cable is of limited length.

●It is more difficult to share the printer.

●You cannot use Web Services.

●You cannot use automatic firmware updates.

NOTE: The use of non-certified USB cables can lead to connectivity problems. Only cables certified by the USB Implementor's Forum (http://www.usb.org/) should be used with this printer.
