steps for each computer you want to print to the printer. Repeat the steps for “Using an Ethernet connection” on
page 29, “Using a wireless network connection” on page 28, or “Shared printing” on page 29 depending on the
networking method you have chosen.
Notes:
• You do not need to reconnect the printer with the USB cable for each additional installation.
• If you are using a wireless network connection, you do not need to reconfigure the wireless print server for each
successive installation.
• The printer should appear as a highlighted printer in the installation. If multiple printers show up in the list, make
sure you select the printer with the correct IP address/MAC address. If you need help finding the IP or MAC address,
see “Finding your MAC address” on page 31.

Tips for installing a network printer
Assigning an IP address
An IP address may be assigned by the network using DHCP. The print object, created at the end of the installation,
sends all print jobs across the network to the printer using this address.
30
Many networks have the ability to automatically assign an IP address. Auto-IP is the ability for individual devices to
assign themselves a unique IP address. Most networks use DHCP to assign addresses.
During the Direct IP printing installation of printer software, the IP address is visible in the printer list only as it is being
assigned. The print object that is created in the Printers folder of the operating system will reference the MAC address
of the printer in the port name.
If the IP address is not automatically assigned, you can try manually entering an address after selecting your printer
from the available list.
Finding your MAC address
You may need the media access control (MAC) address of the print server to complete network printer configuration.
The MAC address is a series of letters and numbers.
1 From the control panel, press repeatedly until Setup appears, and then press .
2 Press repeatedly until Network Setup appears, and then press .
3 Press
4 The MAC address is listed as the UAA.
repeatedly until Print Network Setup Page appears, and then press .
Finding a printer/print server located on remote subnets
The printer software CD can automatically find the printers that are located on the same network as the computer. If
the printer and print server are located on another network (called a subnet), you must manually enter an IP address
during printer software installation.
Wireless troubleshooting
• “Network key is invalid” on page 31
• “Printer is unable to join the network” on page 31
• “Printer is configured correctly, but cannot be found on the network” on page 31
• “Network printer does not print” on page 32
Network key is invalid
A network key is like a password and must follow these criteria:
• WEP key—Exactly 10 or 26 Hexadecimal characters (using A-F and 0-9)
• WPA-PSK key—Between 8 and 63 ASCII characters
Printer is unable to join the network
There are many factors that can prevent the printer from joining the network. Here are some of the most common
troubleshooting solutions:
• Make sure that the printer/print server settings match those used by your wireless network.
• Make sure security keys are correct.
• Make sure that the printer/print server is within range of the network.
• If your network uses MAC address filtering, provide the MAC address for the printer to your network. If you need
help finding the MAC address, see “Finding your MAC address” on page 31.

Loading paper in Tray 1
Make sure:
• You use paper designed for inkjet printers.
• The paper is not used or damaged.
• If you are using specialty paper, you follow the instructions that came with it.
Note: To avoid jams, make sure the paper does not buckle when you adjust the paper guides.
1 Pull Tray 1 completely out of the printer.
2 Move the paper guides to the sides of Tray 1.
Note: If you are loading A4- or legal-size paper, squeeze the lever and pull to extend the tray. It is unnecessary to
extend the tray for paper sizes shorter in length than A4 or legal, such as letter-size paper. When you pull the
extension out, the first stop accommodates A4-size paper. When the extension is fully out, it accommodates
legal-size paper.

Understanding and using tray linking
If your printer has the optional Tray 2 installed, there is a feature called tray linking that lets the printer select paper
from one tray until it becomes empty, and then automatically begin feeding paper from the other tray. You must load
the same size and same type of media in both trays.
When the trays are linked, the printer has a total paper capacity of 300 sheets, since Tray 1 and Tray 2 each hold 150
sheets.
When you are using tray linking, it is very important that you load the same size and type of paper in both trays. The
paper sizes you can load are letter, A4, or legal. You can load plain or photo paper.
Notes:
• If both trays do not have the same type of paper when they are linked, a job could mistakenly print on the wrong
paper type.
• Never mix paper sizes or types in a tray.

the front sides of the sheets. You then reload the document, and the printer prints the even-numbered pages on the
