Telephone Requirements Notice
US Federal Communications Commission
1. The FCC has established rules that permit this device to be
directly connected to the telephone network. Standardized jacks
are used for these connections. This equipment should not be
used on party lines or coin lines.
2. If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing harm to
the telephone network; this device should be disconnected until
repair has been made. If this is not done, the telephone company
may temporarily disconnect service.
3. The telephone company may make changes in its technical
operations and procedures; if such changes affect the
compatibility or use of this device, the telephone company is
required to give adequate notice of the changes. You will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
4. If the telephone company requests information on what
equipment is connected to their lines, inform them of:
A. the telephone number this unit is connected to.
B. the ringer equivalence number.
C. the USOC jack required.
D. the FCC Registration number.
Items ‘B’ and ‘D’ are indicated on the label.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine
how many devices can be connected to your telephone line. In
most areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices on any one line
should not exceed five (5.0). If too many devices are attached,
they may not ring correctly.
Service Requirements
In the event of equipment malfunction, all repairs should be
performed by Xerox or authorized agent. It is the responsibility
of users requiring service to report the need for service to Xerox
or to an authorized agent. Service can be obtained at:

Canadian Industry Requirements
Notice: The Canadian Industry Canada label identifies certified
equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets
certain telecommunications network protective, operational and
safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the
equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the
company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual
service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly
(telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation
of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized
Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any
repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications
company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical
ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal
metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This
precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes
the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop
that is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination
on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to
the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed 100.

Introduction
This document provides an experienced Systems Administrator
with information for setting up and troubleshooting the Document
Centre family of products on the various networks indicated.
Requirements
This document assumes you have purchased your printer with the
integrated network interface or have purchased a Token Ring
network interface upgrade kit separately and it has been installed
using the instructions provided.
Introduction
In general, the requirements needed for connection and setup
include:
•A working knowledge of your network.
•Appropriate cabling to connect your printer to your network.
•A workstation with the appropriate operating system software
installed for that station connected to the same network as the
printer.
•CentreWare Admin Services CD-ROM to install CentreWare
applications.
•CentreWare Network Services CD-ROM to install print drivers.
This document has been arranged to get the printer set up on your
network quickly and with minimum reading.
1.Before connecting network cabling to the Document Centre
device, perform the procedure contained in this document
entitled How to Connect to Ethernet / Token Ring Networks.
2.For Dynamic TCP/IP addressing use either the
DHCP/BOOTP Dynamic IP Address Assignment Quick
Install Card or the RARP Dynamic IP Address
Assignment Quick Install Card.
3.Review the Table of Contents. Find the network operating
system (NOS) or protocol, which pertains to your network.
4.Go to the page indicated and perform the procedure(s).
5.Once you are finished it is recommended you print a test page.
6.Check the print job for print quality. If print quality problems
exist, use the Problem Solving section of the Reference Guide to correct the problem.
7.If your print job DID NOT print, see the Troubleshooting
section for your operating system in this document to correct
the problem.
8.Once your Document Centre is installed and printing, you can
repeat these steps to enable your printer to print with
additional protocols or network operating systems.
For detailed safety information about this product refer to the
Document Centre Reference Guide.
Document Centre Options
The Document Centre can be used as a high speed scan device. If
you have a workstation on your network that has a 32 bit version of
Windows, you can use Xerox CentreWare Scanning Admin Wizard
to configure your Document Centre as a network scanner. Details
on this are available in the document supplied with your Document
Centre entitled CentreWare Network Scanning Services Guide.
For installation instructions on connecting your Document Centre as
a scanner without the use of CentreWare, refer to the section in this
document entitled Scan Setup without CentreWare.
The Document Centre also supports the EquiTrac OfficeTrac
network accounting software. For installation instructions on
connecting to an OfficeTrac server, refer to the Equitrac OfficeTrac Quick Install Card or the section in this document
entitled OfficeTrac Network Accounting.
The Document Centre supports RightFAX to allow it to be used as
a high speed fax device. For installation instructions on connecting
to a RightFAX server, refer to the RightFAX Quick Install Cards
or the section in this document entitled Faxing with RightFAX.
When you see this text in the left margin, it indicates the text to the
right is of special importance and should be read before proceeding.

Use UTP/STP (Category 3 or 5 for 10Mbps Ethernet, Category 5 for
Token Ring or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet) type of cable to connect to
the network as indicated below.
The Document Centre Ethernet Interface has speed settings of
10MBPS (10 Megabits per second), 100MBPS (100 Megabits
per second) and Auto (AutoSensing). If your network has hubs or
concentrators that have Auto-Sensing enabled, it is possible that if
the Document Centre is set to Aut o, the hub/concentrator will not
arbitrate to the correct speed.

Your Document Centre now has DHCP, LPR, and NetBIOS over
the IP protocol enabled by default. If your DHCP server will
provide host name, IP address, Gateway address, and Subnet Mask,
the Document Centre TCP/IP information will be configured on
initial boot.
Your Document Centre printer can be connected to a variety of
networks that use the TCP/IP protocol. The Document Centre
supports two methods of Dynamic Addressing:
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) or BOOTP
RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol)
This section contains procedures for each of these methods.
Determine which method will be used for your network and follow
the steps of the appropriate procedure.
