10Precautions and Limitations
10.1On Using TCP/IP
This section explains the precautions and limitations of using this printer with TCP/IP.
Setting Up
Setting Up the Printer
• Be very careful in setting up IP addresses which are controlled as an entire system.
Consult your network administrator before performing any setup on IP addresses.
• Depending on the network environments, some require subnet mask and gateway to be
set up. Consult your network administrator and set up the necessary items.
• If setting the port to [Enable] leads to insufficient memory, a message to that effect will be
displayed on the printer control panel and the port status may be set to [Disable]
automatically. If this happens, set the ports which are not in use to [Disable], change the
memory size or add more memory.
• Set up the size for the receive buffer memory as required by the environment.
If the size of the receive buffer memory is smaller than the file data to be received, data
will not be received.
Setting Up the Computer
• Be very careful in setting up IP addresses which are controlled as an entire system.
Consult your network administrator before performing any setup on IP addresses.
• Before performing any network setup (such as the IP address) to a host running under
NIS (Network Information Service), consult the NIS administrator.
When setting a UNIX workstation, note the following also:
• The setup procedures and commands may vary according to different versions of OS.
Refer to the manuals that came with the workstation for the details.
• To setup the printer, the user must be a superuser. Contact your network administrator
to perform the setup if you do not have the authority of a superuser.
• The print language/mode is determined by the printer model and configuration. Before
setting a UNIX workstation, check the available languages/modes.
• To specify multiple entries for the logical printer, make sure each printer entry is assigned
its own unique spool directory. If a single spool directory is used for multiple printer
entries, the printer select option may not function correctly.
10.1 On Using TCP/IP57
Switching the Power On/Off
Take note of the following when switching off the printer:
When LPD Spool Is Set to [Memory] (Spool Mode)
All the print data spooled in the printer memory, including print data which is being output,
will be deleted. When the printer is switched on again, the print data will not be found.
However, if the printer is switched off immediately after the print data has been sent, the
data may be stored on the computer. In this case, when it is switched on again, the stored
print data will be printed first even if new print data has been instructed.
When LPD Spool Is Set to [Hard Disk] (Spool Mode)
All the spooled print data, including print data which is being printed, will be saved. When
the power is switched on again, the stored print data will be printed first even if new print
data has been instructed.
When LPD Spool Is Set to [Off] (Non-spool Mode)
All the print data spooled in the printer receive buffer, including print data which is being
output, will be deleted. When the printer is switched on again, the print data will not be
found.
However, if the power is switched off immediately after the print data has been sent, the
data may be stored on the computer. In this case, when the power is switched on again, the
stored print data will be printed first even if new print data has been sent.
Printing From Windows
Take note of the following when printing from Windows:
• In the spool mode, if the print data is bigger than the remaining capacity of the hard disk
or the memory at the point of receiving, the data will not be received by the printer.
Note
• Some client computers may re-send immediately when the print data has exceeded the receiving
capacity. When this occurs, the client appears as if it has crashed.
To rectify this situation, the client computer must be stopped from sending print data.
• In the non-spool mode, printing will commence once data starts to be received by the
printer. Therefore, if the printer has accepted a print request from a computer, it will not
receive another print request from another computer.
• For PCL and DUMP, the specification for the number of copies is invalid.
5810 Precautions and Limitations
Printing From UNIX
Take note of the following when printing from UNIX:
Print
• In the spool mode, up to 32 files can be printed by one command. Files that come after
the 32nd file will be ignored. An instruction with more than 32 files will be treated by the
printer as a print request of up to 32 files.
• In the spool mode, if the print data is bigger than the remaining capacity of the hard disk
or the memory at the point of receiving, the data will not be received by the printer.
Note
• Some client workstations may re-send immediately when the print data has exceeded the receiving
capacity. When this occurs, the client workstation appears as if it has crashed.
To rectify this situation, the client must be stopped from sending print data.
• In the non-spool mode, multiple files can be printed by issuing one command.
Furthermore, the number of files is not limited.
• In the non-spool mode, printing will commence once the data starts to be received by the
printer. Therefore, if the printer has accepted a print request from a client workstation, it
will not receive another print request from another client workstation.
• Options, such as -m option, not processed by the workstation which sends the print
instructions will not be valid.
• For PCL and DUMP, the specification for the number of copies is invalid.
Delete
• Print data which consists of multiple files sent in one print instruction, cannot be deleted
file by file. All the files will be deleted at one go.
• This command will become invalid if it is executed without options having been specified
or if there is no print data which matches the option.
• A workstation can only delete print data it has sent. It cannot delete print data sent by
other workstations.
• Print data which is in the process of printing may not be deleted.
Inquiry
• Long file names will be truncated.
• Up to 64 print instructions can be displayed.
• If two or more types of print languages/modes are set up on a single workstation, identical
job numbers may be displayed when an inquiry command is issued.
• In the non-spool mode, the client must be a Windows NT machine to use this option.
Others
• When the IP address or the computer name of a workstation is changed, the printer may
not process inquiries or deletions correctly. Make sure the printer is free of all spooled
data and switch off/on the printer.
Note
• The function to stop/eject print data spooled to the printer spool can be operated from the printer control
panel. Refer to the Setup and Quick Reference Guide for information on this operation.

• Depending on the network environment used, it may be necessary to set up the subnet
mask and gateway. Consult your network administrator to set up the necessary items.
• If setting the port to [Enable] leads to insufficient memory, a message to that effect will be
displayed on the control panel and the port status may be set to [Disable] automatically.
When this happens, set the ports which are not in use to [Disable], change the memory
size, or install more memories.
• Specify the size for the receive buffer memory (SMB spool) as required by the
environment. If the size of the receive buffer memory (SMB spool) is smaller than the file
data to be received, the data may not be received.
Setting Up the Computer
• Be very careful in setting up IP addresses which are controlled as an entire system.
Consult your network administrator before defining any IP address.
• Before setting any network (such as the IP address) to a host being used under Network
Information Service (NIS), consult the NIS administrator.
Switching the Power On/Off

Take note of the following when printing:
When SMB Spool Is Set to [Hard Disk] or [Memory] (Spool Mode)
If the print data is larger than the hard disk or the remaining memory capacity at the point
of receiving data, the data will not be received by the printer.
Note
• Some client computers may re-send immediately when the print data has exceeded the receiving
capacity. When this occurs, the client computer appears as if it has crashed. To rectify this situation, the
client computer must be stopped from sending print data.
When SMB Spool Is Set to [Off] (Non-spool Mode)
The printer will process print data as soon as data is being received. If the printer has
accepted a print request from a computer, it will not receive another print request from
another computer.
When the IP Address or Computer Name Is Changed
When the IP address or computer name of a computer is changed, it may not be able to
process enquiries or deletion requests from the printer correctly. Make sure the printer is
free of all spooled data and then switch off/on the printer.
Note
• The function to stop/eject print data spooled to the printer spool can be operated from the printer control
panel. Refer to the Setup and Quick Reference Guide for information on the operation.
When Printer Is in Offline Mode
If the printer receives print request from a computer when it is in offline mode, it will not
receive the data and an error message dialog box will be displayed on the computer.
However, with SMB, print data will be sent from the computer even in offline mode.
Deleting Jobs
For Windows NT 4.0, you cannot delete jobs if Service Pack 4 and other items noted above
are not installed. If you delete jobs while the computer is receiving data, an error message
will be displayed. When this happens, the Retry button on the error message is not effective.

CauseThe AppleTalk function of the printer changes the printer name
if it detects that a printer of the same name exists on the
network.
VerificationCheck Chooser to confirm that the printer name has been
changed.
ActionChange the name of the printer or change the name of the
other printer to avoid duplicate printer names on the network.
Cause 1In Chooser, only the NBP entity name of which entity type is
LaserWriter is displayed.
The printer is set up as a slave of the Apple Share Print Server
or the Windows NT Server and the NBP entity name of the
printer has been changed from LaserWriter.
Verification 1Use a network management application software, such as
Apple InterPole, and check that the type of the NBP entity
name of the printer has been changed from LaserWriter.
Action 1If the type of NBP entity name of the printer has been changed
from LaserWriter, the printer cannot be selected in the
Chooser. If the printer must be selected, open the printer using
the Apple Share Print Server or the Windows NT Server.
Cause 2The Macintosh printer driver searches for a printer with the
printer name specified in the Chooser and the zone name of
AppleTalk.
If the network is not connected correctly, the printer cannot be
found.
Verification 2Use a network management application software, such as
Apple InterPole, and check that the printer exists on the
network.
