ETWORK CONFIGURATION
I
NTRODUCTION
Your machine incorporates a fast 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T network interface. This guide
explains the functionality of the built in network interface. Access for interconnection and
producing self-diagnostic test and configuration printouts is provided via an interface panel
at the rear of the machine.
This network interface supports IEEE802.2, IEEE802.3, Ethernet-II and SNAP, and can
detect those frame types automatically.
Also, the interface supports major protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/SPX (NetWare) and
NetBEUI.
This guide details the network interface specification and several software utilities.
You should set the emulation in the Print Setup menu to Auto or PS before printing the self-
diagnostic test and settings.
NOTE
Not all utilities, features or protocols are supported by every operating
system. Please check with your User’s Guide and support website for latest
information.

ELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST
With the machine power switched on, press the push-button located on the network
interface panel (at the rear of the machine) for more than three seconds and release. The
self-diagnostic test results and configuration settings are printed.
On the first page of the Network Information that is printed out, under the heading “General
Information” the MAC or Ethernet address is given. For example:
MAC ADDRESS 00808784E3F1
The Ethernet address is therefore: 00:80:87:84:E3:F1

SING QUICK SETUP
Quick Setup utility allows you to configure the network interface easily and simply without
installing any software packages.
You can configure the following:
> Enable/disable TCP/IP, NetWare, EtherTalk, NetBEUI protocols.
> Set IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway for TCP/IP manually or by using DHCP.
> Set NetWare mode and create Queue/Print Server/Printer objects.
> Zone name and Port name for EtherTalk.
Configuration requires a PC with a supported Windows Operating System. Ref er to the table
above for system requirements.
This utility can only be used on a PC that can be connected to the network with TCP/IP or
IPX/SPX (NetWare).
This utility must be used on a PC that is located on the same segment as the printer.
1. Insert the DVD-ROM into the DVD-R OM driv e. The Setup Utilit y starts automatically.
If it does not start, double-c l ic k \setup.exe (in the root directory) on the DVDROM.
2. Select the appropriate language.
