Setting a SUBNET MASK at the Control Panel
Setting a SUBNET MASK at the
Control Panel
If your printer is connected to a WAN (Wide Area
Network) you may restrict user access by setting a Subnet
Mask.
If you are using the Xerox CentreDirect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter) to connect your printer to the network, you cannot use the control panel to set a subnet mask. Use the telnet procedure that is described in the section for Windows and Unix Operating Systems.
