Configuring the Protocols

Configuring TCP/IP and IPP for Printing
Follow these instructions to configure the printer and Windows 95/98/Me to use the TCP/IP protocol and IPP.
❖❖❖❖ Configuring the printer
Configure the printer to use the TCP/IP protocol.
Confirm that the TCP/IP protocol is set to be active. (The factory default is active.)
Assign an IP address and make other settings required for using the TCP/IP protocol.
25
Reference
For more information about how to make the above settings, see “Configuring the printer for the Network in the Quick Installation Guide.
If DHCP is used to assign IP addresses, see Appendix, When Using DHCP in the Administrator Reference.
Under Windows Me, when you want to use the IP over 1394, see the Option Setup Guide.
Note
After setting the IP address, use the ping command to confirm that it has been set correctly.

A Open [Control Panel] and double-c lick the [Network] icon. Confirm that TCP/IP is listed in the
[The following network components are installed:] box under the [Configuration] tab.
26
Note
If the TCP/IP protocol is not installed, click [Add] under the [Configuration] tab and install it. For
more information about installing the TCP/IP protocol, see Windows 95/98/Me Help.
Under Windows Me, if you want to use IEEE 1394 (IP over 1394), make sure TCP/IP is bound
to the IEEE 1394 adaptor being used. The following message will be displayed:
TCP/IP -> (IEEE 1394 adap to r in use)
B Configure the TCP/IP protocol with the appropriate IP address, subnet mask and other settings.
Confirm th at the settings a re correct with the network administrator.
Configuring NetBEUI for Printing
Follow these instruc tions to co nfigure the printer a nd Windows 95/98/ Me to use the NetBEUI protoco l.
Limitation
