About this Instruction Handbook

This Instruction Handbook <Set-up Edition> is meant to be read when the Printer Board is installed in your copier and the copier is to be used mainly as a local printer. It contains explanations on set-up procedures for using the copier as a printer. As the required set-up and configurations for the printer may differ depending upon the environment in use in the connected computer, please read those sections related to your specific computer environment and perform the appropriate set-up and configuration explained there. This handbook should also be read and used together with the On-Line Manual that is on the included CD-ROM. That On-Line Manual contains explanations on printing, performing certain settings and configurations, and the procedures required at your computer.

About the On-Line Manual

The On-Line Manual for this Instruction Handbook is a PDF (Portable Document Format) file and is located on the CD-ROM that is included with this product. The Adobe Acrobat Reader software is required in order to access the On-Line Manual. The installer for Adobe Acrobat Reader is also included on the CD-ROM so the software can be installed onto your hard disk from there.

2. Set-up

2-3 Network (TCP/IP) settings

When the optional Network Card is installed and this machine is to be used as a network printer, it is necessary to set the corresponding IP address for the printer.

Notes

• The IP address that should be registered here will differ depending upon your network environment. Check with your network administrator BEFORE performing this setting.

• If you are using a DHCP server to automatically configure the IP address, this setting will not be necessary because DHCP server configuration is already enabled as the factory default setting.

* To cancel the setting midway through it, press the Stop/Reset key.

Press the Printer key. The machine will switch to the printer

mode and “P00” will appear in the copy quality/magnification display.

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “23” and then press the Enter key. The display will change to “P23” (the TCP/IP ON/

OFF setting).

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “2” (Off) and then press

the Enter key. The selected setting will flash twice and will then be registered.

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “25” and then press the

Enter key. The display will change to “P25” (the IP address setting).

The (+) and (–) keys will be used to select the 12-digit IP

address in blocks of 3 digits each: First, enter the appropriate 3 digits for the first block and then press the Enter key. Repeat this same procedure for the 3 remaining blocks of the address (4 blocks in all). Once the Enter key is pressed for the final 3-digit block, the display will flash twice and the IP address will be registered.

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “1” (On) and then press

the Enter key. The selected setting will flash twice and will then be registered.

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “24” and then press the Enter key. The display will change to “P24” (the DHCP ON/

OFF setting).

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “26” and then press the

Enter key. The display will change to “P26” (the Subnet Mask setting). Enter the 12-digit Subnet Mask using the same procedure that you did for entering the IP address.

Use the (+) and (–) keys to select “27” and then press the

Enter key. The display will change to “P27” (the Gateway address setting). Enter the 12-digit Gateway address using the same procedure that you did for entering the IP address.
