Network Connectivity
IP
Internet Protocol (IP) is a protocol within the Internet Protocol Suite that manages the transmission of
messages from computer to computer.
About TCP/IP and IP Addresses
Computers and printers primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network.
Generally, Macintosh computers use either TCP/IP or the Bonjour protocol to communicate with a
network printer. For Macintosh OS X systems, TCP/IP is preferred. Unlike TCP/IP, however, Bonjour does
not require printers or computers to have IP addresses.
With TCP/IP protocols, each printer and computer must have a unique IP address. Many networks and
cable and DSL routers have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server
automatically assigns an IP address to every computer and printer on the network that is configured to
use DHCP.
If you use a Cable or DSL router, see the documentation for your router for information on IP addressing.
Accessing TCP/IP Settings
You can access IPv4, IPv6, and DNS/WINS settings in CentreWare Internet Services.
1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Protocols.
2. Click TCP/IP.
3. To edit IPv4 settings, click TCP/IP (v4).
4. To edit IPv6 settings, click TCP/IP (v6).
5. To edit DNS/WINS settings, click DNS/WINS.
6. For the new settings to take effect, restart your printer.

Domain Name System (DNS) is a system that maps host names to IP addresses. Windows Internet
Name Service (WINS) allows the printer to register its IP address and NetBIOS Host Name with a WINS
server. When WINS is configured, the printer uses only the host name to communicate.
You can obtain DNS/WINS settings from the DHCP or BOOTP server when enabled.
Note: Before you change the DNS/WINS settings, contact your network administrator.
DNS/WINS Configuration Options
Name/Domain Name
The hostname is the printer name registered with DDNS and WINS that identifies it on the network. The
domain name is the server location that the printer uses to communicate with other devices.
• The default hostname derives from the printer Ethernet address.
• You can set the hostname and the domain name, however if BOOTP/DHCP is enabled,
BOOTP/DHCP can override these values.
DNS Configuration
You can use DNS configuration to define up to four name servers that are detectable by an IPv4 or IPv6
server.
• DNS configuration requires a name server.
• The format is x.x.x.x, where x represents a decimal number from 0 through 255.
• A value of all zeros indicates that no server is configured. If both primary and secondary name
servers are undefined, the printer broadcasts (peer-to-peer) name recognition.
•BOOTP/DHCP can override the IPv6 name server information.
When Dynamic DNS is enabled, the printer can update the DNS server.
•If your DNS server supports dynamic address updates, for Dynamic DNS Registration, select the
check box.
•To release the assigned hostname and IP address so that the server can use it for another device,
select Release Hostname Now!.
Note: If you select Release Hostname Now, the connection to the printer can be lost.

AirPrint
Use AirPrint to print directly from a wired or wireless device without using a print driver. AirPrint is a
software feature that allows for driverless printing from Apple iOS-based mobile devices and Mac
OS-based devices. AirPrint-enabled printers let you print directly from a Mac or from an iPhone, iPad, or
iPod touch.
If you specify the geographical latitude and longitude of the printer, use decimal form. For latitude, type
a coordinate value from –90 through 90. For longitude, type a coordinate value from –180 through 180.
For example, use coordinates such as 45.325026, -122.766831.

About Certificates
A digital certificate is a file that contains data used to verify the identity of the client or server in a
network transaction. A certificate also contains a public key used to create and verify digital signatures.
One device proves its identity to another by presenting a certificate trusted by the other device. Or, the
device can present a certificate signed by a trusted third party and a digital signature proving its
ownership of the certificate.
A digital certificate includes the following data:
• Information about the owner of the certificate
• The certificate serial number and expiration date
• The name and digital signature of the certificate authority (CA) that issued the certificate
• A public key
• A purpose defining how the certificate and public key can be used
The printer supports three types of certificates. You can create a self-signed certificate, or install a root
certificate or a certificate signed by a certificate authority (CA).
•A Device Certificate is a certificate for which the printer has a private key. The purpose specified in
the certificate allows it to be used to prove identity.
• The printer generates a default self-signed certificate during its first startup.
• A CA Certificate is a certificate with authority to sign other certificates. The device certificate signed
by a CA validates the identity of the printer to the network.
•A Root or Trust Point Certificate is a self-signed certificate from another device that you want to
trust.

Installing a Digital Certificate
There are three ways to install a certificate on the printer:
®
•Create and install a Xerox
Create a Xerox
public key used in SSL encryption. Install the Xerox
Generic Xerox
®
Device Certificate to allow the printer to generate a certificate, sign it, and create a
®
Trusted CA Certificate in the devices that the printer communicates with. Examples
of other devices are client Web browsers for HTTPS, or RADIUS authentication server for 802.1X.
Installing this certificate ensures that users can access the printer using CentreWare Internet
Services, and certificate warning messages do not appear.
Note: Creating a Xerox® Device Certificate is less secure than creating a certificate signed by a
trusted CA. If you do not have a server functioning as a Certificate Authority, install a Xerox
Certificate on the printer. Then install the Generic Xerox
devices.
•Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and install the CA-signed device certificate.
Create a CSR. Send the CSR to a CA or a local server functioning as a CA to sign the CSR and return
the certificate. Install the certificate on the printer. An example of a server functioning as a CA is
Windows Server 2008 running Certificate Services.
•Install trusted CA and self-signed certificates.
Install the certificates of the root CA, and any intermediate CAs for your company. Install the
self-signed certificates from any other devices in your network.

About HTTPS and SSL
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a request-response standard protocol between clients and servers.
Clients that make HTTP requests are called User Agents (UAs). Servers that respond to these requests for
resources, such as HTML pages, are called Origin Servers. There can be any number of intermediaries,
such as tunnels, proxies, or gateways between User Agents and Origin Servers.
You can establish an HTTP Secure(HTTPS) connection to the printer by encrypting data sent over HTTP
using SSL. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol that creates an encrypted connection between your
printer and a server. Features that require HTTPS use it automatically. You can use SSL encryption for
protocols such as SMTP as well.
Note: When SSL is enabled, all Web pages contain https:// in the URL.

ON, OFF This command switches trays when a tray
becomes empty. If AutoSelect is chosen as
the tray in PCL, then tray switching is
always active, regardless of the value.
When the current tray becomes empty, the
printer attempts to switch to another tray
with the same size and type of paper. This
command only takes effect when a specific
tray, such as Tray 2, is selected in the job.
When this command is ON, tray switching
still occurs when the tray becomes empty.
When this command is OFF, no switching
occurs and the user is prompted to load
paper.
