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.
Enabling or Disabling TCP/IP at the Printer Control Panel
You can enable or disable IPv4 and IPv6 independently.
Note: If both IPv4 and IPv6 are disabled, you cannot access CentreWare Internet Services. To access
IPv4 and IPv6 settings in CentreWare Internet Services, enable TCP/IP at the printer control panel. If
you disable TCP/IP or change the IP address, any dependent protocols are disabled.

IPv4
This section includes:
• Configuring IPv4 With BOOTP/DHCP ....................................................................................................................... 23
You can configure IPv4 with or without BOOTP/DHCP. To enable the printer to acquire TCP/IP
information automatically, configure IPv4 with BOOTP/DHCP. To enter TCP/IP information manually,
configure IPv4 without BOOTP/DHCP. Without BOOTP/DHCP, the printer does not issue BOOTP or DHCP
requests on startup.
Before you assign an IP address, ensure that no other device on the network is using the address. If
another device is using the same IP address, the printer goes offline until the conflict is resolved.
Notes:
• To use BOOTP, set up a reservation for the printer on the BOOTP server.
• If you change the BOOTP/DHCP setting, the connection to the printer can be lost.
Configuring IPv4 With BOOTP/DHCP
1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Protocols.
2. Click TCP/IP (v4).
3. To enable TCP/IP v4, select the check box.
4. For Auto IP Enable, select an option.
− On: This option assigns the IP address automatically.
− Off: This option allows you to configure the IP address manually. This setting is recommended
for enterprise networks.

• DNS/WINS Configuration Options ............................................................................................................................ 25
DNS/WINS
This section includes:
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.
WINS Servers
When running WINS, the printer registers its IP address and NetBIOS Host Name with a WINS server.
WINS allows the printer to communicate using host name only. Using Microsoft Networking removes
significant overhead for systems administrators.

• DNS configuration requires the primary server address.
• The secondary server address is optional.
• The format is x.x.x.x, where x represents a decimal number from 0 through 255.
• If DHCP is configured, WINS IP addresses are overridden.
Multicast DNS (Bonjour)
When you enable Multicast DNS (Bonjour) on the printer, the printer responds to mDNS calls. Any
computer that runs the Apple Macintosh OS Bonjour technology can discover the printer on a network.
To enable computers on a network to locate the printer with Multicast DNS (Bonjour), select On.

SLP
Printers use Service Location Protocol (SLP) to announce and look up services on a local network without
prior configuration. When SLP is enabled, the printer becomes a Service Agent (SA) and announces its
services to User Agents (UA) on the network using SLP. If Directory Agents (DA) exist on the network, they
provide a cache for services information. When Directory Agent Discovery is enabled, the printer attempts
SLP Directory Agent Discovery.
1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Protocols.
2. Click SLP.
3. For SLP Enable, select On.
4. To configure the printer to search for discovery agents, for Directory Agent Discovery Enable, select
On.
5. For Directory Agent, type the name of the directory agent. To discover one or more directory agents,
leave the field blank.
6. For Scope 1, 2, and 3, type a name as needed. When scope fields are empty and DHCP Option 79 is
configured on the DHCP server, the printer uses scopes that are specified in Option 79.
7. For SLP Multicast Enable, select an option.
− On: The printer uses multicast to communicate as needed.
− Off: The printer uses broadcast instead of multicast to communicate.
8. To specify the multicast radius, for SLP Multicast TTL, type a value from 0–255. Multicast radius is
also referred to as hop count or time-to-live (TTL).
9. To specify the maximum packet size that the printer can transmit for UDP, for SLP MTU, type a value
from 484–1400. When packets exceed the maximum size, the printer uses TCP/IP.
10. Click Save Changes.
