• Assign an IP address and make other settings required for TCP/IP.
26
Reference
For more information about how to make the above settings, see “Configuring the printer for the
Network”, Setup Guide.
If DHCP is used to assign IP addresses, see Appendix, “When Using DHCP”, Administrator Ref-
erence.
Under Windows Me, when you want to use IP over 1394, see Setup Guide.

----Bidirectional transmission
When bidirectional t ran smission is enabled, i n f ormat i on a bout paper size and f eed direction sett ings is
automatically sent to the printer by the comput er. You can also check printer status fro m your comp uter.
• Bidirectional transmission is supported by Windows 95/98/Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP and
Windows NT 4.0.
• If you use the RPCS prin ter driver and bidi rectional transmission is enabled, un der Windows 2000,
the [Change Accessories] tab is shaded, and cannot be used.
Note
❒ The RPCS printer driver supports bidirectional transmission and updates the printer status automat-
ically.
❒ The PCL 5c printer driv er supports bidirectional transmissio n; you can update the printer status
manually. However, it does not support bidirectional transmission over a parallel connection.
❒ The PostScript 3 printer driver does not support bidirectional transmission.
Bidirectional transmission requires the following conditions:
85
❖❖❖❖ When connecting via parallel cable
• The computer must support bidirectional transmission.
• The printer must be set to bidirectional transmission.
• The Interface cable must support bidirectional transmission.
• The machine must be connected to the computer using standard parallel cable and parallel con-
nector.
• Under Windows 2000, [Enable bidirectional support] must be selected and [Enable printer pool-
ing] must not be selected on the [port] tab with RPCS printer driver.
Operating Instructions Printer Client Reference
❖❖❖❖ When connecting with the network
• The printer must be set to bidirectional transmission.
• SmartNetMonitor for Client included on the CD-ROM must be installed, and TCP/IP must be
used.
• Under Windows 2000, [Enable bidirectional support] must be selected and [Enable printer pool-
ing] must not be selected on the [port] tab with RPCS printer driver.
❖❖❖❖ When connecting with IEEE 1394
• The printer must be connected to the IEEE 1394 connector of a computer using the IEEE 1394
interface cable.
• On the printer's control panel, [Active] is select ed in t he SCSI pri nt of IEE E 1394 an d [On] is se-
lected in t he Bidi-SCSI p rint.
• Under Windows 2000, [Enable bidirectional support] must be selected and [Enable printer pool-
ing] must not be selected on the [port] tab with RPCS printer driver.
❖❖❖❖ When connecting with USB
The printer must be connected to the computer's USB connector using the USB interface cable.

To print from Windows XP, you must install the printer driver and change the printer port connection
to the print server.

Installing the PCL 5c or RPCS Printer Driver
Preparation
To use the print server, install the printer driver by selecting “Network printer server”, and then select
the Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows NT 4.0 shared printer. For more information about how
to install and settings, see Administrato r Refere nce .
This section assumes the client has already been configured to communicate with a Windows 2000,
Windows XP or Windows NT 4. 0 print server. Do not beg in the followin g procedure un til the client
is set up and configured correctly.
Limitation
❒ When using a print server connected to the machine via SmartNetMonitor for Client, you cannot use
Recovery Printing and Parallel Printing.
Note
❒ When using Windows NT 4.0 as a Print Server, make sure to install the Windows NT 4.0 printer driv-
er before connecting the print server. There is a Windows NT 4.0 printer driver on the CD-ROM labeled “Printer Drivers and Utilities”.

❒ Never have two versions of the same printer driver installed on your system at the same time. When
upgrading to a new version of the printer driver, delete the old version, and then install the new one.
Note
❒ Auto Run might not work automa tically due to certain operating system s ettings. If this is the
case, launch “Setup. exe” located in the CD-ROM root directory.
