Network Connection

Theory

To connect your printer in a TCP/IP network environment, you must make sure that the internal network addresses in the printer have been set.
" In many cases, you have
to enter only a unique IP address. However, you may also have to enter a subnet mask and/or a gateway (router) address, depending on your network configuration requirements.
Supported Environments
Windows Server 2003/XP/2000/NT4.0/Me/98SE
Network Connection54
Page 61

Making the Connection

Ethernet Interface
The standard Ethernet interface is an RJ45 type of connector, capable of transmission speeds from 10 to 100 megabits per second (Mbit/s).
When connecting your printer to an Ethernet network, the tasks you perform depend on how you plan to set the printer’s IP (Internet Protocol) address. Printers are shipped with a preset IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.
IP Address—A unique identifier for each device on a TCP/IP network.
Subnet Mask—A filter used to determine what subnet an IP address
belongs to.
Gateway—A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another
network.
Since the IP address for each PC and printer on your network must be unique, you usually need to modify this preset address so it doesn’t conflict with any other IP address or your network or any attached network. You can do this in one of two ways. Each is explained in detail in the following sec­tions.
Using DHCP
Setting the address manually
Using DHCP
If your network supports DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the printer’s IP address will be automatically assigned by the DHCP server when you turn on the printer. (Refer to “Network Printing” on page 59 for a descrip­tion of DHCP.)
" If your printer is not automatically assigned an IP address, verify that
DHCP is enabled on the printer (
FIG PAGE DHCP/BOOTP
). If it is not enabled, you can enable it in the NETWORK
menu.
1 Connect your printer to the network.
Attach your printer to the network by plugging the network RJ45 connec­tor into the RJ45 receptacle on the interface panel of your printer.
2 Turn on your PC and printer. 3 When the printer’s message window displays READY, install the printer
driver and utilities.

Network Printing

The magicolor 5430 DL supports the following network protocols:
BOOTP
DHCP
HTTP
IPP
LPD/LPR
SLP
SNMP
TCP/IP
This chapter defines each of these protocols and then explains how to print via IPP.

BOOTP

BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol), an Internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP address, the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the machine. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or floppy disk drive.

DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. This means that a new computer can be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.

HTTP

HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is the underlying protocol used by the World Wide Web. It defines how messages are formatted and transmitted, and what actions web servers and browsers should take in response to vari­ous commands. For example, when you enter a URL in your browser, this actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to fetch and transmit the requested web page.
Network Printing

Page 66
IPP
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a protocol for end users’ most common printing situations over the Internet. It allows users to find out about a printer’s capabilities, submit print jobs to a printer, find out the status of the printer or print job, and cancel a previously submitted print job.
For more information on using IPP, See “Printing via IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) – Windows Server 2003/XP/2000” on page 62.

LPD/LPR

LPD/LPR (Line Printer Daemon/Line Printer Request) is a platform­independent printing protocol that runs over TCP/IP. Originally implemented for BSD UNIX, its use has spread into the desktop world and is now an industry standard.
SLP
SLP (Service Location Protocol) simplifies the discovery and use of network resources such as printers by automating a number of network services.
Traditionally, in order to locate services on the network, users had to supply the host name or network address of the machine providing the desired ser­vice. This has created many administrative problems.
However, SLP (Service Location Protocol) simplifies the discovery and use of network resources such as printers by automating a number of network ser­vices. It provides a framework that allows networking applications to discover the existence, location, and configuration of networked services.
With SLP users no longer need to know the names of network hosts. Instead, they need to know only the description of the service they are interested in. Based on this description, SLP is able to return the URL of the desired service.
Unicast, Multicast, and Broadcast
SLP is a unicast and a multicast protocol. This means that messages can be sent to one agent at a time (unicast) or to all agents (that are listening) at the same time (multicast). However, a multicast is not a broadcast. In theory, broadcast messages are “heard” by every node on the network. Multicast differs from broadcast because multicast messages are only “heard” by the nodes on the network that have “joined the multicast group.”
For obvious reasons network routers filter almost all broadcast traffic. This means that broadcasts that are generated on one subnet will not be “routed” or forwarded to any of the other subnets connected to the router (from the router’s perspective, a subnet is all machines connected to one of its ports).
Network Printing60
Page 67
Multicasts, on the other hand, are forwarded by routers. Multicast traffic from a given group is forwarded by routers to all subnets that have at least one machine that is interested in receiving the multicast for that group.

SNMP

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is actually a set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages to differ­ent parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.

TCP/IP

Most networks combine TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) with the lower-level protocol IP (Internet Protocol). TCP establishes a virtual connec­tion between two host systems and guarantees the delivery of data between them while IP specifies the format and addressing of this data sent between these two host systems.

Setting Up the Printer Web Page

Setting up the printer web page to run on your network involves two basic steps:
Determining the name or address of your printer
Setting up the “no proxy” preferences in your browser software

Determining the Printer Name

The printer web page can be accessed in two ways:
Through the assigned name of the printer—This name comes from the IP
host table (the filename is hosts) on the computer system and is usually assigned by the system administrator (for example, magicolor 5430 DL). It may be more convenient for you to use the printer name than the IP address.
Location of the Host Table on the PC
z Windows Server 2003/XP \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts z Windows Me/98SE \windows\hosts z Windows 2000/NT4.0 \winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Through the printer’s IP address—The IP address of your printer is a
unique number and, therefore, may be the preferred identification to enter, especially if you have more printers active in your network. The printer’s IP address is listed on the configuration page.
Location of the Configuration Page in the Printer’s Configuration Menu
SPECIAL PAGES/PRINT CONFIG PAGE menu

Setting Up Your Browser Software

Since your printer resides on your intranet and is not accessible beyond the firewall of your network, you must set up the proper “preferences” in your browser software. Your printer name or IP address must be added to the “no proxy” list in the preferences dialog box of the browser.
" You need to do this procedure only once.
The sample screens below may be different from yours depending on soft­ware versions and operating systems in use.
" Our examples represent the IP address of the printer with:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Always enter your printer's IP address without lead­ing zeros. For example, 192.168.001.002 should be entered as
192.168.1.2.
