PROGRAMS FOR PRINT MODE

PORT SWITCHING METHOD

(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)

This program is used to set the method for switching printer ports.

The machine can use the following three printer ports:

Parallel port

USB port

Network port

The factory default setting is "SWITCH AT END OF JOB".

Selections

Description

SWITCH AT

Automatic printer port selection

END OF JOB

at the end of each print job.

 

 

SWITCH AFTER

Automatic printer port selection if

I/O TIMEOUT

the time set in "I/O TIMEOUT"

 

elapses.

 

 

ENABLE PARALLEL PORT

(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)

This program is used to enable or disable printing via the parallel port.

This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).

NETWORK SETTINGS

(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)

The NETWORK SETTINGS are used when the machine is used as a network printer. The "NETWORK SETTINGS" consist of the following programs:

IP ADDRESS SETTING

ENABLE TCP/IP

ENABLE NetWare

ENABLE EtherTalk

ENABLE NetBEUI

RESET THE NIC

Consult your network administrator Caution before configuring the NETWORK

SETTINGS.

• After changing the settings, you must turn

Note off the machine’s power switch, wait briefly, and then turn the switch back on in order to make the changes take effect.

Some programs in the following are marked by "*1". This indicates that a message will appear at the end of the setting procedure asking you to confirm execution of the new setting. If needed, you can cancel the new setting by touching the [NO] key.

ENABLE USB PORT

(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)

This program is used to enable or disable printing via the USB port.

This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).

ENABLE NETWORK PORT

(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)

This program is used to enable or disable printing via the network port.

This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).

ENABLE ECP

(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)

Enable this program when you wish to use ECP mode on the parallel port.

This program is initially disabled (factory default setting).

IP ADDRESS SETTING

This program is used to set the IP address (IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway) of the machine when TCP/IP protocol is used on the network.

When "DHCP" is selected, the machine will obtain an IP address automatically. This is the factory default setting. When the machine is used on a TCP/IP network, be sure to enable the "ENABLE TCP/IP" program.

When DHCP is used, the IP address Caution assigned to the machine may

automatically be changed on occasion. If this happens, printing will not be possible.

This setting is only effective in a network Note environment that uses Ipv4 TCP/IP protocol.

To set an IP address on a Ipv6 TCP/IP network, use the Web pages. In an IPv6 environment, the machine can use LPD or IPP protocol.

ENABLE TCP/IP

This program must be enabled to use the machine on a TCP/IP network. "IP ADDRESS SETTING" must also be configured.

This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).

ENABLE NetWare

This program must be enabled to use the machine on a network that uses NetWare protocol.

This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).
