TCP/IP Network Setup Procedures

To use a TCP/IP network, it is necessary to perform the following procedures.

Protocol Settings (See "Protocol Settings," on p. 3-3.)

Specify the protocol settings. To specify the settings, use:

Using a TCP/IP Network

• The machine's control panel

• The Remote UI (via a web browser)

• Canon utilities (NetSpot Device Installer, etc.)

Computer Settings for Printing/Sending a Fax (See "Setting Up a Computer for Printing/ Sending a Fax," on p. 3-43.)

Specify the settings for each computer you use for printing or sending a fax. (Optional equipment is required to print or send a fax from a computer. For the equipment needed, see "Optional Equipment and System Requirements," on p. 1-2.)

Computer Settings for a File Server (See "Setting Up a Computer as a File Server," on p. 3-54.)

Specify the settings of the computer receiving data sent from the machine.

IMPORTANT

•

If you are using the optional imagePASS, for step 2, see the manual provided with the optional imagePASS, not this guide.

•

It is recommended that steps 1 and 3 above be performed by the network administrator.

•

The machine or optional printing equipment does not come with printer driver software that can be used on a UNIX platform. (Use LPD to set up a printer in UNIX.)

•

As the fax option does not come with fax driver software for the UNIX platform, it is not possible to send a fax from a UNIX platform.

TCP/IP Network Setup Procedures

Protocol Settings

This section describes how to specify the protocol settings for the machine using the control panel. If you are configuring the settings for the first time, use the control panel of the machine.

After configuring the settings, you can change the content by using software other than the control panel of the machine. For details, see "Network Setting Items," on p. 8-2.

IMPORTANT

•

When using functions to access external servers on the internet, you may not be able to access them due to the settings of firewalls, etc. In this case, consult your network administrator.

•

If you are using the optional imagePASS, see the manual provided with the optional imagePASS for more information on the settings (other than for e-mail/I-fax settings).

TCP/IP Settings (IPv4)

The following are the procedures for specifying the TCP/IPv4 settings from the control panel. After configuring the TCP/IPv4 settings, confirm that the network connections are properly set. (See "Confirming TCP/IP Settings (IPv4)," on p. 3-17.)

Using a TCP/IP Network

If you want to use IPv6 communications, follow the procedure in "TCP/IP Settings (IPv6)," on p. 3-18 to specify the required settings, and the procedure in "Confirming TCP/IP Settings (IPv6)," on p. 3-26 to confirm the settings.

On the TCP/IP Settings screen, press [IPv4 Settings] ➞ [IP Address Settings].

Protocol Settings

3-3

In [IP Address Settings], specify the following.

● Using a fixed IP address:

❑

Enter the appropriate values in [IP Address], [Subnet Mask], and [Gateway Address].

NOTE

It takes about two minutes to check whether the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP settings

Using a TCP/IP Network

can be used. If you do not plan to use one of these settings, it is recommended that you turn them off.

● Obtaining automatically an IP address:

[DHCP], [RARP], or [BOOTP]: [On]

❑

If this information cannot be obtained via DHCP, RARP, or BOOTP after you restart the machine, enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address to use the settings entered in this step.

NOTE

•

If the machine is restarted after DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP settings are specified, the TCP/IP Settings screen displays the IP address setting values obtained from the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server. (If the IP address, host name, and domain name have been previously set, these will be overwritten by the setting values obtained from DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP.)

•

If you use DHCP without the DNS dynamic update function, it is recommended that an identical IP address be assigned to the machine at all times. (If the IP address is not identical, the host name for the machine will not correspond to the IP address.)
