Introduction

Once you have connected your printer to a network with an RJ-45
Ethernet cable, you can share the printer with other network users.
You need to set up the network protocols on the printer to use it as your
network printer. Protocols can be set up by the following two methods:

Via network administration programs

You can configure your printer’s print server settings and manage the
printer via the following programs that came with your printer:
SyncThru™ Web Admin Service: Web-based printer management
solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin
Service provides you with an efficient way of manageing network
devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network
machines from any sith with corporate internet access. Download this
program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.
SyncThru™ Web Service: A web server embedded to your network
print server, which allows you to configure the network parameters
necessary for the printer to connect to various network environments.
SetIP: Utility program allowing you to select a network interface and
manually configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol.
See Using SetIP program on page 4.2.

Via the control panel

You can set up the following basic network parameters through the
printer’s control panel:
• Configure TCP/IP
• Configure EtherTalk

Supported operating systems

The following table shows the network environments supported by the
printer:
• TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
• DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
• BOOTP: Bootstrap Protocol
