Refer to the following diagram example to confirm the network environment that is connected to the machine, and then perform the necessary operations.
Sample Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP Network
With a NetWare Server
Before You Start
In a network environment like the one below, a NetWare, TCP/IP, or NetBIOS protocol can be used for printing. Multiple protocols can also be used at the same time. NetBIOS is available only for Windows 95/98/Me.
Windows 95
Windows 98 Windows NT
Protocol: NetWare, TCP/IP, NetBIOS

Checking Your Network Environment
iR2000/iR1600 Series
Without a NetWare Server
In a network environment like the one below, either TCP/IP or NetBIOS protocol can be used. Multiple protocols can also be used at the same time. NetBIOS is available only for Windows 95/98/Me.
Windows 95 Windows 98 Windows NT
Protocol: TCP/IP, NetBIOS

Chapter 2 Using a TCP/IP Network (Windows/UNIX)
Chapter 4 Using a NetBIOS Network (Windows 95/98/Me)
NOTE
Once you set up a network printer, each computer can output directly to it. Using TCP/IP protocol with Windows 2000 or Windows NT as a print server provides efcient management of your network printer. For the detailed procedure, see “Print Server Settings,” on p.2-29.
In a network comprising only Windows 95/98/Me that does not use the TCP/IP protocol, you can only use NetBIOS protocol to specify basic settings.

TCP/IP Network Setup Operating Procedures

To use a TCP/IP network, it is necessary to perform the following procedure.
Network Cable Connection (See the PS/PCL Printer Guide)
1
2
Using a TCP/IP Network (Windows/UNIX)
Connect the network cables in accordance with the PS/PCL Printer Guide.
Preparation for Protocol Settings (See “Preparation for Protocol Settings,” on
2
p. 2-3.)
Specify the machine’s protocol settings for communication between the machine and computers using the machine. Any of the following can be used to specify the settings.
• ARP/PING commands
• Machine’s control panel (Additional Functions menu)
Protocol Settings (See “Protocol Settings,” on p. 2-8.)
3
Specify the machines protocol settings. Use any of the following software to specify the settings on the computer.
Web browser (Remote UI)
FTP client
2-2
Computer Settings for Printing (See Setting Up a Computer for Printing,” on
4
p. 2-15.)
Specify the settings for each computer you use for printing.
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that the network manager perform steps 1, 2, and 3 above.
If you are printing using a TCP/IP network, you can use the following print applications.
- LPD
- FTP
- Raw (Windows 2000/XP only)
- IPP (Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP only)
This machine does not come with printer driver software that can be used for each UNIX platform.
TCP/IP Network Setup Operating Procedures

Preparation for Protocol Settings

Before you specify the machine’s protocol settings, it is necessary to specify the machine IP address to enable communication between the machine and your computers. You can use either of the following to specify the settings. Specify the settings using the easiest method.
Machines control panel (Additional Functions menu)
ARP/PING commands
IMPORTANT
In the following operations in this section, the machine’s MAC address is necessary. For
checking the MAC address, from the printer control panel, follow the procedure below to make a test print.
1. Press [Go] on the printer control panel; the Online indicator goes off.
2. Press [Menu] several times until <TEST MENU> appears.
3. Press [Item] several times until <PRINT EN CONFIG> appears in the second line in the display.
4. Press [Enter].
Before you perform the following operations in this section, check that the machine is on
and connected to the network. If you are using ARP/PING commands, the following steps directly allocate the IP
address to the machine. For this machine, in addition to direct allocation of the IP address to the machine, you can use DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP to specify the IP address. When the machine is started or reset, it checks whether DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP is being used, and then allocates the IP address using the rst available setting method. Because the machine IP address is automatically allocated at this time, it is not necessary for you to perform the following operations in this section. However if you are reallocating the IP address, or if DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP cannot be used, perform the following operations in this section.

If you are using UNIX, display the console screen, and then log in as a superuser.
Execute the following command to add a static entry to the

arp table.
arp -s
<IP Address> <MAC Address>
IP Address: Specify the IP Address you want to allocate to the machine.
The IP address consists of 4 numbers ranging from 0 to 255 with “.” as the breakpoint.
MAC Address: Specify the MAC Address of the machine. Every second digit
is separated by “-” (“:” for UNIX).
Input Example (Windows):
Input Example (UNIX):
NOTE
If you are using IBM-AIX, enter "arp -s ether <IP Address> <MAC Address>."
arp -s 172.20.88.125 00-00-85-05-70-31
arp -s 172.20.88.125 00:00:85:05:70:31

ping -s
ping
ping <IP Address> 487 (for HP-UX)
ping -s 479 <IP Address> (for Red Hat Linux)
ping -s 480 <IP Address> (for Turbolinux)
IP Address: Specify the same address as the IP address as you specied
Input Example (Windows): ping 172.20.88.125 -l 479
NOTE
The preparation for machine protocol settings are completed.
<IP Address>
<IP Address> 479 (for IBM-AIX)
The character in -l” is the alphabet letter l. The Subnet Mask and Gateway Address are set as <0.0.0.0>.

Settings Using a Web Browser (Remote UI)
1
Start the web browser, enter the URL below in Location or Address, and then press the Enter key.
http://<machine host name or IP address >/
Input Example: http://172.20.88.125/
IMPORTANT
For your web browser, use Netscape Navigator/Communicator 4.04 or later, or Internet Explorer 4.01SP1 or later.
Turbolinux 4.0, you cannot set this machines protocol settings through Netscape Communicator 4.08. Use a different version web browser.
If you are using a connection via a proxy server, use the following settings. (The settings differ depending on the network environment.)
- When conguring your web browser to use the proxy server, add the IP address of the machine to Exception (the address not using the proxy server).
Set up the web browser to accept cookies.
If you are starting more than one Remote UI at the same time, only the last setting specied will be valid. It is recommended that you start only one Remote UI.

Specify the setting method for the machine IP address.
Under Use DHCP, Use BOOTP, and Use RARP, select On to use for the IP
address setting.
When selecting Off for Use DHCP, Use BOOTP, and Use RARP, the machine does not check the protocols.
If neither DHCP, BOOTP, nor RARP can be used, the IP address specied in IP Address is allocated.
IMPORTANT
For this machine, in addition to direct allocation of the IP address to the machine, you can use DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP to specify the IP address. When the machine is started or reset, it checks whether DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP is being used, and then allocates the IP address using the rst available setting method.
NOTE
Checking whether DHCP, BOOTP or RARP can be used takes about 1 to 2 minutes; it is recommended you set unused protocols to <Off>.
Depending on whether you use DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP to allocate the IP address, you need to start the DHCP server, BOOTP daemon, or RARP daemon.
