NOTE
By setting the network as shown in the above figure, each computer can print to the network printer directly. When using a TCP/IP protocol, you can use the network printer effectively by using Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista on the print server. For details on the procedures for configuring the print server, see the setting procedure for the print server in "Chapter 2 Getting Started" in Driver Guide (PDF manual).

NOTE
If this printer is connected to a switching hub etc., the printer may not be able to be connected to the network even when the network settings are correct. This is because the printer and hub cannot communicate each other immediately after this printer is connected to the hub due to a spanning tree process. In this case, you need to make this printer wait to start communication. For details on the functions of a switching hub, contact the manufacturer of the switching hub.
