Introduction

Types of network connections 1

Network connection example 1

Generally there are two types of network connections. Peer-to-Peer and Network Shared environment.

Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP 1

In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each computer directly sends and receives data to each device. There is no central server controlling file access or printer sharing.

Windows

TCP/IPTCP/IP

1 Router

2 Network printer (your machine)

 In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier

to configure than the Network Shared printing method described on the following page. See Network Shared printing on page 5.

 Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol.  The Brother machine needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration.  If you are using routers, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the Brother

machine.

 The Brother machine can also communicate with Macintosh

(TCP/IP compatible operating systems).

Page 13

Introduction

Network Shared printing 1

In a Network Shared environment, each computer sends data via a centrally controlled computer. This type of computer is often called a “Server” or a “Print Server”. Its job is to control the printing of all print jobs.

1 Client computer

2 Also known as “Server” or “Print server”

3 TCP/IP or USB (where available)

4 Printer (your machine)

 In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment.  The “server” or the “print server” must use the TCP/IP print protocol.  The Brother machine needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration unless the machine is

connected via the USB interface at the server.

Page 14

Introduction

Protocols 1

TCP/IP protocols and functions 1

Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain access to network connected resources.

The print server used on this Brother product supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) protocol.

TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail. This protocol

can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows The following TCP/IP protocols are available on this Brother product.

Note

• You can configure the protocol settings by using the HTTP (web browser). See Using Web Based Management (web browser) to change the print/scan settings on page 14.

• For the protocols of security features, see Security protocols on page 47.

, Macintosh® and Linux.

DHCP/BOOTP/RARP 1

By using the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, the IP address can be automatically configured.

Note

To use the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, please contact your network administrator.

APIPA 1

If you do not assign an IP address manually (using the control panel of the machine or the BRAdmin software) or automatically (using a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server), the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255.

DNS client 1

The Brother print server supports the Domain Name System (DNS) client function. This function allows the print server to communicate with other devices by using its DNS name.

LPR/LPD 1

Commonly used printing protocols on a TCP/IP network.

SMTP client 1

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) client is used to send E-mails via Internet or Intranet.

Port9100 1

Another commonly used printing protocol on a TCP/IP network.

Page 15

Introduction

IPP 1

The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) allows you to print documents directly to any accessible printer via the internet.

mDNS 1

mDNS allows the Brother print server to automatically configure itself to work in a Mac OS® X Simple Network

Configured system. (Mac OS

X 10.2.4 or greater).

TELNET 1

The Brother print server supports TELNET server for command line configuration.

SNMP 1

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used to manage network devices including computers, routers and Brother network ready machines in a TCP/IP network.

Web server (HTTP) 1

The Brother print server is equipped with a built in web server that allows you to monitor its status or change some of its configuration settings.

Note

We recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0

Safari™ 1.0 for Macintosh

. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always enabled in whichever browser you use. We recommend you upgrade to Safari™ 1.2 or greater to enable JavaScript. If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.

(or greater) or Firefox® 1.0 (or greater) for Windows® and

FTP 1

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) allows the Brother machine to scan black and white or color documents directly to an FTP server located locally on your network or on the internet.

IPv6 1

This machine is compatible with IPv6, the next generation internet protocol. For more information on the IPv6 protocol, visit http://solutions.brother com/

Page 16

Configuring your network printer 2

Overview 2

Before you can use your Brother machine on your network, you need to install the Brother software and also configure the appropriate TCP/IP network settings on the machine itself. To do this, we recommend that you use the automatic installer on the Brother CD-ROM as this will guide you through the software and network installation.

If you do not wish to use the automatic installer, or you do not understand some of the terms used by the automatic installer, refer to the remainder of this chapter for more information.

Note

If you do not wish to, or are unable to use the automatic installer or any of Brother’s software tools, you can also use the machine’s control panel to change network settings. For more information, see Control panel setup on page 16.

IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways 2

To use the machine in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure its IP address and subnet mask. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host computers. If it is not, you must properly configure the subnet mask and the gateway address.

IP address 2

An IP address is a series of numbers that identifies each device connected to a network. An IP address consists of four numbers separated by dots. Each number is between 0 and 255.

 Example: In a small network, you would normally change the final number.

192.168.1.1

How the IP address is assigned to your print server: 2

If you have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server in your network (typically a UNIX®/Linux or Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista

from the DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services.

Note

On smaller networks, the DHCP server may be the router.

For more information on DHCP, BOOTP and RARP, see Using DHCP to configure the IP

address on page 79, Using BOOTP to configure the IP address on page 80 and Using RARP to configure the IP address on page 81.

, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3

, Windows Server® 2003 network) the print server will automatically obtain its IP address

Page 17

Configuring your network printer

If you do not have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server, the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. For more information on APIPA, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page 81.

If the APIPA protocol is disabled, the IP address of a Brother print server is 192.0.0.192. However, you can easily change this IP address number to match with the IP address details of your network. For information on how to change the IP address, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask on page 10.

Subnet mask 2

Subnet masks restrict network communication.

 Example: Computer1 can talk to Computer 2

•Computer 1 IP Address: 192.168.1.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

•Computer 2 IP Address: 192.168.1.3 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Note

0 denotes that there is no limit to communication at this part of the address.

In the above example, we can communicate with anything that has an IP address that begins with

192.168.1.x.

Gateway (and router) 2

A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network and sends data transmitted via the network to an exact destination. The router knows where to direct data that arrives at the gateway. If a destination is located at an external network, the router transmits data to the external network. If your network communicates with other networks, you may need to configure the Gateway IP address. If you do not know the Gateway IP address then contact your Network Administrator.

Before using your Brother product in a network environment, you need to configure the correct TCP/IP settings. For more information, see Configuring your network printer on page 8.

In this chapter, you will learn how to configure the network settings using the control panel, located on the front of the machine.

The LAN menu selections of the control panel allow you to set up the Brother machine for your network configuration. Press Menu, then press a or b to choose LAN. Proceed to the menu selection you wish to configure. See Function table and default factory settings on page 88.

Please note that the machine is supplied with the BRAdmin Light utility and Remote Setup applications for

BOOT Method 3

This selection controls how the machine obtains the IP address for itself. The default setting is Auto.

Note

• If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the BOOT Method to Static so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from

trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the BOOT Method, use the machine’s control panel, BRAdmin Professional utility, Remote Setup or Web Based Management (web browser).

• You cannot change the BOOT method using the BRAdmin Light utility that was supplied on the CD-ROM with your Brother product. Please use the latest BRAdmin Professional utility that is available as a

download from http://solutions.brother.com/

g Press Stop/Exit.

Auto mode 3

In this mode, the machine will scan the network for a DHCP server, if it can find one, and if the DHCP server is configured to allocate an IP address to the machine, then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server is available, then the machine will scan for a BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is available, and it is configured correctly, the machine will take its IP address from the BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is not available, the machine will scan for a RARP server. If a RARP server also does not answer, the IP Address is scanned through APIPA facility, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page 81. After it is initially powered ON, it may take a few minutes for the machine to scan the network for a server.

Static mode 3

In this mode the machine’s IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP address is locked to the assigned address.

RARP mode 3

The Brother print server IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (RARP) service on your host computer. For more information on RARP, see Using RARP to configure the IP address on page 81. This is done by editing the /etc/ethers file (if this file does not exist, you can create it) with an entry similar to the following:

00:80:77:31:01:07 BRN310107 Where the first entry is the Ethernet address of the print server and the second entry is the name of the print

server (the name must be the same as the one you put in the /etc/hosts file). If the RARP daemon is not already running, start it (depending on the system the command can be rarpd,

rarpd -a, in.rarpd -a or something else; type man rarpd or refer to your system documentation for additional

information). To verify that the RARP daemon is running on a Berkeley UNIX following command:

ps -ax | grep -v grep | grep rarpd

For AT&T UNIX® based systems, type:

ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep rarpd

The Brother print server will get the IP address from the RARP daemon when it is powered on.

based system, type the

Page 26

BOOTP mode 3

BOOTP is an alternative to RARP that has the advantage of allowing configuration of the subnet mask and gateway. For more information on BOOTP, see Using BOOTP to configure the IP address on page 80. In order to use BOOTP to configure the IP address make sure that BOOTP is installed and running on your host computer (it should appear in the /etc/services file on your host as a real service; type man bootpd or refer to your system documentation for information). BOOTP is usually started up via the /etc/inetd.conf file, so you may need to enable it by removing the “#” in front of the bootp entry in that file. For example, a typical bootp entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file would be:

#bootp dgram udp wait /usr/etc/bootpd bootpd -i

Note

Depending on the system, this entry might be called “bootps” instead of “bootp”.

In order to enable BOOTP, simply use an editor to delete the “#” (if there is no “#”, then BOOTP is already enabled). Then edit the BOOTP configuration file (usually /etc/bootptab) and enter the name, network type (1 for Ethernet), Ethernet address and the IP address, subnet mask and gateway of the print server. Unfortunately, the exact format for doing this is not standardized, so you will need to refer to your system

documentation to determine how to enter this information (many UNIX

systems also have template examples in the bootptab file that you can use for reference). Some examples of typical /etc/bootptab entries include:

BRN310107 1 00:80:77:31:01:07 192.189.207.3

and:

BRN310107:ht=ethernet:ha=008077310107:\

ip=192.189.207.3:

Certain BOOTP host software implementations will not respond to BOOTP requests if you have not included a download filename in the configuration file; if this is the case, simply create a null file on the host and specify the name of this file and its path in the configuration file.

As with RARP, the print server will load its IP address from the BOOTP server when the printer is powered on.

DHCP mode

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is one of several automated mechanisms for IP address

allocation. If you have a DHCP server in your network (typically a UNIX

Vista

network) the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from a DHCP server and register its

name with any RFC 1001 and 1002 compliant dynamic name services.

IP Address 3

This field displays the current IP address of the machine. If you have selected a BOOT Method of Static, enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the machine (check with your network administrator for the IP address to use). If you have selected a method other than Static, the machine will attempt to determine its IP address using the DHCP or BOOTP protocols. The default IP address of your machine will probably be incompatible with the IP address numbering scheme of your network. We recommend that you contact your network administrator for an IP address for the network the unit will be connected on.

Security features 9

Overview 9

In today’s world there are many security threats to your network and the data that travels over it. Your Brother machine employs some of the latest network security and encryption protocols available today. These network features can be integrated into your overall network security plan to help protect your data and prevent unauthorized access to the machine. This chapter explains the various security protocols supported and how to configure them.

Security terms 9

 CA (Certificate Authority)

A CA is an entity that issues digital certificates (especially X.509 certificates) and vouches for the binding between the data items in a certificate.

 CSR (Certificate Signing Request)

A CSR is a message sent from an applicant to a CA in order to apply for issue of a certificate. The CSR contains information identifying the applicant, the public key generated by the applicant and the digital signature of the applicant.

 Certificate

A Certificate is the information that binds together a public key with an identity. The certificate can be used to verify that a public key belongs to an individual. The format is defined by the x.509 standard.

 Digital signature

A Digital signature is a value computed with a cryptographic algorithm and appended to a data object in such a way that any recipient of the data can use the signature to verify the data's origin and integrity.

 Public key cryptosystem

A Public key cryptosystem is a modern branch of cryptography in which the algorithms employ a pair of keys (a public key and a private key) and use a different component of the pair for different steps of the algorithm.

 Shared key cryptosystem

A Shared key cryptosystem is a branch of cryptography involving algorithms that use the same key for two different steps of the algorithm (such as encryption and decryption).

IPPS 9

The printing protocol that the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) uses SSL.

Security methods for E-mail notification 9

The Brother print server supports the following security methods for E-mail notification.

Note

How to configure the settings of security methods, see Using Web Based Management (web browser) to change the print/scan settings on page 14.

POP before SMTP (PbS) 9

The user authentication method for sending E-mail from a client. The client is given permission to use the SMTP server by accessing the POP3 server before sending the E-mail.

SMTP-AUTH (SMTP Authentication) 9

SMTP-AUTH expands SMTP (the Internet E-mail sending protocol) to include an authentication method that ensures the true identity of the sender is known.

APOP (Authenticated Post Office Protocol) 9

APOP expands POP3 (the Internet receiving protocol) to include an authentication method that encrypts the password when the client receives E-mail.

Using E-mail notification with user authentication 9

To use the E-mail notification function via secure SMTP server that requires user authentication, you need to use POP before SMTP or SMTP-AUTH method. These methods prevent an unauthorized user from accessing the mail server. You can use Web Based Management (web browser), BRAdmin professional or Web BRAdmin to configure these settings.

Note

You need to match the settings of POP3/SMTP authentication with one of the E-mail servers. Contact your network administrator or your internet service provider about the configuration before using.

How to configure the POP3/SMTP settings using Web Based Management (web browser).

a Start your web browser. b Type “http://printer’s IP address/” into your browser (where “printer’s IP address” is the printer’s IP

address or the node name.).

 For example:

http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.) http://BRN123456/ (if the printer’s node name is BRN123456.)

Note

If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using Domain Name System, you can also enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network Configuration List.

Creating and installing a certificate 9

The Brother print server allows you to use SSL/TLS communication by configuring a certificate and corresponding private key. This print server supports two certification methods. A self-signed certificate and a certificate that is issued by a CA (Certificate Authority).

 Using self-signed certificate

This print server issues its own certificate. Using this certificate, you can easily use the SSL/TLS communication without having a certificate from a CA. See Creating and installing a self-signed certificate on page 56.

 Using a certificate from a CA

There are two methods for installing a certificate from a CA. If you already have a CA or if you want to use a certificate from an outside trusted CA:

• When using a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from this print server. See Creating CSR and installing a certificate on page 68.

• When importing a certificate and a private key. See Import and export the certificate and private key on page 70.

Note

• If you are going to use SSL/TLS communication, we recommend that you contact your system administrator before using.

• This print server stores only one pair of a certificate and a private key that you installed or previously imported. This printer overwrites the certificate and the private key if you install a new one.

• When you reset the print server back to its default factory settings, the certificate and the private key that are installed will be deleted. If you want to keep the same certificate and the private key after resetting the print server, export them before resetting and re-install them. See How to export the certificate and private key on page 71.

This feature can be configured using Web Based Management (web browser) only. Follow these steps to access the configure certificate page using Web Based Management.

a Start your web browser. b Type “http://printer’s IP address/” into your browser. (where “printer’s IP address” is the printer’s IP

address or the node name.)

 For example:

http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.) http://BRN123456/ (if the printer’s node name is BRN123456.)

Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista® and Windows Server 2003 IPP troubleshooting 10

I want to use a different Port number other than 631. 10

If you are using Port 631 for IPP printing, you may find that your firewall may not let the print data through. If this is the case, use a different port number (port 80), or configure your Firewall to allow Port 631 data through.

To send a print job using IPP to a printer using Port 80 (the standard HTTP port) enter the following when

configuring your Windows

a If you cannot connect to the print server using your web browser it may be worth checking the Proxy

Settings of your browser. Looking in the Exceptions setting and if necessary, type in the IP address of the print server. This will stop your PC from trying to connect to your ISP or proxy server every time you wish to look at the print server.

b Make sure that you are using the proper web browser, we recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0

(or greater) or Firefox® 1.0 (or greater) for Windows® and Safari™ 1.0 for Macintosh®. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always enabled in whichever browser you use. We recommend you upgrade to Safari™ 1.2 or greater to enable JavaScript. If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.

Appendix A A

Using services A

A service is a resource that can be accessed by computers that wish to print to the Brother print server. The Brother print server provides the following predefined services (do a SHOW SERVICE command in the Brother print server remote console to see a list of available services): Enter HELP at the command prompt for a list of supported commands.

Service (Example) Definition

BINARY_P1 TCP/IP binary, NetBIOS service TEXT_P1 TCP/IP text service (adds carriage return after each line feed) PCL_P1

BRNxxxxxx_P1 TCP/IP binary BRNxxxxxx_P1_AT

POSTSCRIPT_P1

Where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address (for example, BRN310107_P1).

Other ways to set the IP address (for advanced users and administrators) A

For information on how to configure your machine for a network using the BRAdmin Light utility, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask on page 10.

Using DHCP to configure the IP address A

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is one of several automated mechanisms for IP address allocation. If you have a DHCP server in your network, the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services.

Note

If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the BOOT Method to static so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the BOOT Method, use the machine’s control panel, BRAdmin Professional utility, Remote Setup or Web Based Management (web browser).

Page 88

Appendix A

Using BOOTP to configure the IP address A

BOOTP is an alternative to rarp that has the advantage of allowing configuration of the subnet mask and gateway. In order to use BOOTP to configure the IP address make sure that BOOTP is installed and running on your host computer (it should appear in the /etc/services file on your host as a real service; type man

bootpd or refer to your system documentation for information). BOOTP is usually started up via the /etc/inetd.conf file, so you may need to enable it by removing the “#” in front of the bootp entry in that

file. For example, a typical bootp entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file would be:

#bootp dgram udp wait /usr/etc/bootpd bootpd -i

Depending on the system, this entry might be called “bootps” instead of “bootp”.

Note

documentation to determine how to enter this information (many UNIX examples in the bootptab file that you can use for reference). Some examples of typical /etc/bootptab entries include: (“BRN” below is “BRW” for a wireless network.)

systems also have template

BRN310107 1 00:80:77:31:01:07 192.168.1.2

and:

BRN310107:ht=ethernet:ha=008077310107:\

ip=192.168.1.2:

Certain BOOTP host software implementations will not respond to BOOTP requests if you have not included a download filename in the configuration file. If this is the case, simply create a null file on the host and specify the name of this file and its path in the configuration file.

As with RARP, the print server will load its IP address from the BOOTP server when the printer is powered on.

Page 89

Appendix A

Using RARP to configure the IP address A

The Brother print server’s IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (RARP) facility on your host computer. This is done by editing the /etc/ethers file (if this file does not exist, you can create it) with an entry similar to the following: (“BRN” below is “BRW” for a wireless network.)

00:80:77:31:01:07 BRN310107

Where the first entry is the Ethernet address of the print server and the second entry is the name of the print server (the name must be the same as the one you put in the /etc/hosts file).

If the RARP daemon is not already running, start it (depending on the system the command can be rarpd, rarpd -a, in.rarpd -a or something else; type man rarpd or refer to your system documentation for

additional information). To verify that the RARP daemon is running on a Berkeley UNIX the following command:

ps -ax | grep -v grep | grep rarpd

For AT&T UNIX

ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep rarpd

The Brother print server will get the IP address from the RARP daemon when the printer is powered on.

-based systems, type:

based system, type

Using APIPA to configure the IP address A

The Brother print server supports the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol. With APIPA, DHCP clients automatically configure an IP address and subnet mask when a DHCP server is not available. The device chooses it's own IP address in the range 169.254.1.0 through to 169.254.254.255. The subnet mask is automatically set to 255.255.0.0 and the gateway address is set to 0.0.0.0.

By default, the APIPA protocol is enabled. If you want to disable the APIPA protocol, you can disable it using control panel of the machine. For more information, see APIPA on page 23.

If the APIPA protocol is disabled, the default IP address of a Brother print server is 192.0.0.192. However, you can easily change this IP address number to match with the IP address details of your network.

Page 90

Appendix A

Using ARP to configure the IP address A

If you are unable to use the BRAdmin application and your network does not use a DHCP server, you can

also use the ARP command. The ARP command is available on Windows

installed as well as UNIX

systems. To use ARP enter the following command at the command prompt:

arp -s ipaddress ethernetaddress

ping ipaddress

Where ethernetaddress is the Ethernet address (MAC address) of the print server and ipaddress is the IP address of the print server. For example:

 Windows

Windows

systems

systems require the dash “-” character between each digit of the Ethernet address.

arp -s 192.168.1.2 00-80-77-31-01-07

ping 192.168.1.2

 UNIX

Typically, UNIX

/Linux systems

and Linux systems require the colon “:” character between each digit of the Ethernet

address.

systems that have TCP/IP

arp -s 192.168.1.2 00:80:77:31:01:07

ping 192.168.1.2

Note

You must be on the same Ethernet segment (that is, there cannot be a router between the print server and operating system) to use the arp -s command.

If there is a router, you may use BOOTP or other methods described in this chapter to enter the IP address.If your administrator has configured the system to deliver IP addresses using BOOTP, DHCP or RARP your Brother print server can receive an IP address from any one of these IP address allocation systems. In which case, you will not need to use the ARP command. The ARP command only works once. For security reasons, once you have successfully configured the IP address of a Brother print server using the ARP command, you cannot use the ARP command again to change the address. The print server will ignore any attempts to do this. If you wish to change the IP address again, use a web browser, TELNET (using the SET IP ADDRESS command) or factory reset the print server (which will then allow you to use the ARP command again).

Page 91

Appendix A

Using the TELNET console to configure the IP address A

You can also use the TELNET command to change the IP address. TELNET is an effective method to change the machine’s IP address. But a valid IP address must already be

programmed into print server. Type TELNET ipaddress at the command prompt of the system prompt, where ipaddress is the IP address of

the print server. When you are connected, push the Return or Enter key to get the “#” prompt. Enter the password “access”.

You will be prompted for a user name. Enter anything in response to this prompt. You will then get the Local> prompt. Type SET IP ADDRESS ipaddress, where ipaddress is the

desired IP address you wish to assign to the print server (check with your network administrator for the IP address to use). For example:

Local> SET IP ADDRESS 192.168.1.3

You will now need to set the subnet mask by typing SET IP SUBNET subnet mask, where subnet mask is the desired subnet mask you wish to assign to the print server (check with your network administrator for the subnet mask to use). For example:

Local> SET IP SUBNET 255.255.255.0

If you do not have any subnets, use one of the following default subnet masks:

255.0.0.0 for class A networks

255.255.0.0 for class B networks

255.255.255.0 for class C networks The leftmost group of digits in your IP address can identify the type of network you have. The value of this

group ranges from 1 through 127 for Class A networks (e.g., 13.27.7.1), 128 through 191 for Class B networks (e.g.,128.10.1.30), and 192 through 255 for Class C networks (e.g., 192.168.1.4).

If you have a gateway (router), enter its address with the command SET IP ROUTER routeraddress, where routeraddress is the desired IP address of the gateway you wish to assign to the print server. For example:

Local> SET IP ROUTER 192.168.1.4

Type SET IP METHOD STATIC to set the method of IP access configuration to static. To verify that you have entered the IP information correctly, type SHOW IP. Type EXIT or Ctrl-D (i.e., hold down the control key and type “D”) to end the remote console session.

Note

• You must configure the IP address on your machine before you proceed with this section. If you have not configured the IP address, see Configuring your network printer on page 8 first.

• Verify the host computer and print server are either on the same subnet, or that the router is properly configured to pass data between the two devices.
