Printing using the IEEE 802.11b Interface
This section describes how to print after installing the optional 802.11b Interface
Kit.
There are two methods of using this machine as a network printer with IEEE
802.11b.
Note
❒ IEEE 802.11b (wireless LAN) is unavailable in some countries, or its use may
be limited.
❖❖❖❖ ad hoc mode (802.11 ad hoc mode/ad hoc mode)
This is the mode for transmitting between each wireless LAN client. You
must make the channels the same for each wireless LAN client to transmit using this basic transmitting method which does not require an access point.
When using “802.11b ad hoc mode”, the SSID must be set. The ad hoc mode
settings can be made from telnet or a Web Browser. See p.100 “Using in Ad
hoc Mode”.
8
❖❖❖❖ infrastructure mode
This is the mode for transmitting via an access point. The SSID
same as the access point. When setting WEP
*2
, you must set the same values
*1
must be the
as an access point. By connecting the access point to Ethernet, you can transmit the current network environment. See p.100 “Using in Infrastructure
Mode”.
*1
This is called a Service Set ID and is used in the connection between the wireless
LAN client and the access point. Only a wireless LAN client and an access point
that have the same SSID can transmit to each other. (The character strings to be set
are in the range ASCII 0x20-0x7e and the SSID is case-sensitive to 32 bytes.)
*2
This is used to protect coded wireless data transmission. When both the wireless
LAN client and the transmission access point are coded using a 64-bit key, you
must set the same WEP key as the printer. (You can set only 10 hexadecimal characters when using 64-bit or 26 hexadecimal characters when using 128-bit.)

Printing using the IEEE 1394 Interface
This section describes how to print via the IEEE 1394 interface after installing the
1394 Interface Unit.
There are two methods of using the machine as a network printer with IEEE
1394.
❖❖❖❖ SCSI print
You can print using the SCSI print device provided by Windows 2000 and
Windows XP. For more information, see “Printing with SCSI Print”, Printer
Reference 1 and p.91 “Configuring the Network Interface Board Settings”.
❖❖❖❖ IP over 1394
You can print by setting the IP address for this machine and the computer on
which Windows Me or Windows XP is installed. For more information, see
“Printing with IP over 1394”, Printer Reference 1 and p.35 “Printing with a
Standard TCP/IP Port” in the Windows XP Configuration.

Configuring Protocols
1
Configuring TCP/IP and IPP for Printing
These instructions are for configuring the Network Interface Board and Windows 95/98/Me to use the TCP/IP protocol and IPP.
Configuring the machine
Configure the machine to use the TCP/IP protocol.
• Make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is set to active. (The default is active.)
• Assign an IP address and make other settings required for using the TCP/IP
protocol.
Reference
For more information about how to make the above settings, see the General
Settings Guide.
If DHCP is used to assign IP addresses, see p.134 “Using DHCP”.
Note
❒ After setting the IP address, use the ping command to make sure that it has
been set correctly.
Enable the use of the command prompt as follows:
A
• On Windows 95 or Windows 98
Click [Start], point to [Programs], and then click [MS-DOS Prompt].
• On Windows Me
Click [Start], point to [Programs], point to [Accessories], and then click
[MS-DOS Prompt].
Type the following: (Example IP address is 192.168.15.16)
B
C:\> ping 192.168.15.16
If the address has been configured correctly, the following message appears.
Reply from 192.168.15.16 : bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=32
If the address has been configured incorrectly, the following message appears.
Request timed out.

Using SmartNetMonitor for Client
Using SmartNetMonitor for Client
SmartNetMonitor for Client is a utility that helps you to use network printers effectively. It is useful in environments where two or more network printers are
used. It is recommended that you install SmartNetMonitor for Client to use Parallel Printing and Recovery Printing. For more information about SmartNetMonitor for Client, see SmartNetMonitor for Client Help.
❖❖❖❖ SmartNetMonitor for Client features
• Sends a print job directly to the network printers without using a print
server.
• Notifies when a printing error occurs.
• Prints documents using other printers in the printer group when the spec-
ified printer is busy (Recovery Printing).
• Notifies on print job (data sent) completion.
• Equally divides the number of copies to be printed among the selected
printers in the printer group (Parallel Printing).
1
Important
❒ The following must be the same for the specified printer and the print-
ers selected for Recovery Printing or Parallel Printing.
• Printer models (for Parallel Printing only)
• Installed options (e.g. Paper tray unit)
• Size and orientation of paper in each paper tray unit
• Total memory
• Installed fonts (including the downloaded fonts)
Note
❒ Failure to meet any of the conditions above may result in unexpected
print results.
