Note

Since this machine is automatically detected with a network connection, be sure to set the IP address of this machine before connecting it. For de- tails on specifying the settings, refer to “Setting the IP Address for This Machine” on page 3-5.

When installing on Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, XP x64 or Server 2003 x64, administrator permissions are required.

If the wizard starts up in order to add new hardware with a USB or parallel connection, click [Cancel].

For IPP printing, it is not necessary to install the printer driver at this time since IPP printing setup is performed when the printer driver is installed. For further details on IPP printing, refer to “IPP Printing (Windows 2000/ XP/Server 2003/XP x64/Server 2003 x64)” on page 3-13.
