INTRODUCING USEFUL NETWORK PROGRAMS

There are several programs available to setup the network settings easily in network environment. For the network administrator especially, managing several machines on the network is possible.

Before using the programs below, set the IP address first.

SyncThru™ Web Service

Web server embedded on your network machine, which allows you to:

Configure the network parameters necessary for the machine to connect to various network environments.

Customize machine settings.

(See "Using SyncThru™ Web Service" on page 82).

Installing wired network or USB connected machine’s driver

IPv6 Configuration

SyncThru™ Web Admin Service

Web-based machine management solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of managing network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network machines from any site with corporate internet access. Download this program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.

Samsung AnyWeb Print

This tool helps you to screen-capture, preview, scrap and print the screen of Windows Internet Explorer more easily, than when you use the ordinary program. Click Start > All programs > Samsung Printers > Samsung AnyWeb Print > Download the latest version to link the website where the tool is available for the download. This tool is available only for Windows operating systems.

SetIP

This utility program allows you to select a network interface and manually configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol (See "IP setting using SetIP Program (Windows)" on page 36 or "IP setting using SetIP Program (Macintosh)" on page 36).

TCP/IPv6 is not supported by this program.

USING A WIRED NETWORK

You must set up the network protocols on your machine to use it on your network. This chapter will show you how this is easily accomplished.

You can use network after connecting network cable to a corresponding port on your machine.

Printing Network Configuration report

You can print a Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network and troubleshoot problems.

1.Press Menu on the control panel.

2.Press the left/right arrow until Network appears and press OK.

3.Press the left/right arrow until Network Info. appears and press OK.

4.Press the left/right arrow until Yes appears and press OK.

Using this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine MAC address and IP address.
