TCP/IP Network Setup Operating Procedures

To use a TCP/IP network, it is first necessary to enter the Ethernet driver settings and IP address settings. You also need to enter e-mail/I-fax settings, as well as settings f or printing and file sharing if necessary.
Setup Preparations
Ethernet driver and IP address settings. These settings are entered from the control panel of the machine. You can also use the Remote UI
to change the values of these settings.
IMPORTANT
• It is recommended that a network manager enters Ethernet driver and IP address settings.

E-mail/I-Fax Settings
The following operations are necessary to enter e-mail/I-fax settings. E-mail/I-fax settings for the machine can be entered from the control panel or the Remote UI. Use whichever is more convenient. (The Remote UI enables you to enter a variety of settings for the machine from a computer with a web browser.) For instructions on using the Remote UI, see the

●
Using UNIX
(See “Setting Up a Computer for Printing (UNIX),” on p. 2-23.)
NOTE
• The machine’s Salutation Print Functional Unit enables you to do the following:
- Manage print jobs sent to the machine from a personal computer. This enables you to view job lists, can­cel jobs, etc.
- Notify a personal computer about the status of the machine. This enables the machine to send informa­tion about installed optional equipment, low paper levels, etc.
• The use of the Salutation Pr int Functional Unit requires Ethernet driver and IP address settings. (See “Protocol Settings,” on p. 2-5.) The use of the Salutation Print Functional Unit also requires Salutation­compatible software such as IBM NuOffice. For the necessary Salutation software and computer settings, see the manuals provided with the respective products. Also, this Print Functional Unit may be affected by limitations from Salutation-compatible software. (See the related manuals.)
File Sharing Settings
The following settings are necessary to send files to servers, and to share files on servers over a network.

• Only one of the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP settings can be checked at one time.
• Even when using the DHCP, BOOTP, and RARP settings, you should enter an IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address. If this information cannot be obtained from the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server, the settings entered from the control panel are used.
• When using DHCP, it is recommended that identical IP address be assigned to the machine at all times. (If the identical IP address is not assigned, the machine’s host name cannot be related to the machine’s IP address.)
• It takes about two minutes to check whether the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP set­tings can be used. If you do not plan to use one of these settings, it is recom­mended that you turn them off.

Your machine supports both SMTP and POP3 functions. To receive using SMTP, you need to register the host name of your machine with the DNS server and then enter the host name after the “@” symbol in the e-mail address.
●
Example
To receive e-mail/I-fax messages using POP3: account1@pop_server.organization.company.com (In this example the name of the POP server is “pop_server.organization.company.com”)
To receive e-mail/I-fax messages using SMTP: account1@host_name.organization.company.com (In this example the host name of the machine registered with the DNS server is “host_name.organization.company.com”)
If you are receiving e-mail/I-fax messages by SMTP, go to step 11.
Enter the POP Server for directly receiving e-mail and I-faxes.
