User manuals and video tutorials

Solutions to troubleshooting problems

Printer and supplies status

Supplies ordering and recycling

Answers to frequently asked questions

Default printer driver settings (Windows only)

To start the Xerox Support Centre utility:

1.Select one of the following options:

Overview of Network Setup and Configuration

Overview of Network Setup and Configuration

To set up and configure the network:

1.Turn on the system and the computer.

2.Connect the system to the network using the recommended hardware and cables.

3.Configure the system’s network address, which is required to identify the system on the network.

Windows operating systems: Run the Installer on the Software and Documentation CD-ROM to automatically set the system’s IP address if the system is connected to an established TCP/IP network. You can also manually set the printer’s IP address on the control panel. Once the IP address is set, continue the installation procedure to install the driver software.

Macintosh systems: Manually set the system’s network address (for TCP/IP) on the control panel. Install the driver software on the computer from the Software and Documentation CD-ROM.

Note: For information on driver installation, see the section in this chapter for the specific operating system you are using.

If the Software and Documentation CD-ROM is not available, you can download the latest driver from www.xerox.com/drivers.

Connecting via USB on page 2-3

Connecting via Ethernet (Recommended) on page 2-3

Choosing a Connection Method

Connect the system via Ethernet or USB. A USB connection is a direct connection and not used for networking. An Ethernet connection is used for networking. Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Cabling and hardware are generally not included with your system and must be purchased separately.

Connecting via USB

If you are connecting to one computer, a USB connection offers fast data speeds. However, a USB connection is not as fast as an Ethernet connection. To use USB, PC users must have Microsoft Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. Macintosh users must use

Mac OS 9.x and higher.

USB Connection

A USB connection requires a standard A/B USB cable. This cable is not included with your system and must be purchased separately. Verify that you are using the correct USB cable for your connection.

1.Connect one end of the USB cable to the system and turn it on.

2.Connect the other end of the USB cable to the computer.

Connecting via Ethernet (Recommended)

Ethernet can be used for one or more computers. It supports many printers and systems on an Ethernet network. An Ethernet connection is recommended because it is faster than a USB connection. It also allows you direct access to CentreWare Internet Services (IS). CentreWare IS provides a simple interface that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked printers from your desktop using an embedded web server. For complete information about CentreWare IS, click the Help button in CentreWare IS to go to the

CentreWare IS Online Help.

Setting Up the Network

Network Connection

Depending on your particular setup, the following hardware and cabling is required for Ethernet.

If you are connecting to one computer, an Ethernet RJ-45 crossover cable is required.

If you are connecting to one or more computers with a hub, an Ethernet hub and two twisted-pair (category 5/RJ-45) cables are required.

If you are connecting to one or more computers using a cable or DSL router, a cable or DSL router and two or more twisted-pair (category 5/RJ-45) cables are required. (One cable for each device.)

If you are connecting to one or more computers with a hub, connect the computer to the hub with one cable, and then connect the system to the hub with the second cable. Connect to any port on the hub except the uplink port.

TCP/IP and EtherTalk are the most common protocols used with Ethernet. To print using a TCP/IP protocol, each computer and system requires a unique IP address.

TCP/IP and IP Addresses

If your computer is on a large network, contact your network administrator for the appropriate TCP/IP addresses and additional configuration information.

If you are creating your own small Local Area Network or connecting the system directly to your computer using Ethernet, follow the procedure for automatically setting the system’s Internet Protocol (IP) address.

PCs and systems primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network. With TCP/IP protocols, each system and computer must have a unique IP address. It is important that the addresses are similar, but not the same; only the last digit needs to be different. For example, your system can have the address 192.168.1.2 while your computer has the address 192.168.1.3. Another device can have the address 192.168.1.4.

Generally, Macintosh computers use either TCP/IP or the EtherTalk protocol to talk to a networked printer. For Mac OS X systems, TCP/IP is preferred. Unlike TCP/IP, however, EtherTalk does not require systems or computers to have IP addresses.

Many networks have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server automatically programs an IP address into every PC and system on the network that is configured to use DHCP. A DHCP server is built into most cable and DSL routers. If you use a cable or DSL router, see your router’s documentation for information on IP addressing.

Automatically Setting the System’s IP Address

If the system is connected to a small established TCP/IP network without a DHCP server, use the installer on the Software and Documentation CD-ROM to detect or assign an IP address to your system. For further instructions, insert the Software and Documentation CD-ROM into your system’s CD-ROM drive. After the Installer launches, follow the prompts for installation.

Note: For the automatic Installer to function, the system must be connected to an established TCP/IP network.

Configuring the Network Address

Dynamic Methods of Setting the System’s IP Address

Set the system’s IP address using any of the following methods. DHCP is enabled by default on all Phaser printers.

DHCP

CentreWare IS

AutoIP

Information Required for Manual IP Addressing

Information

Comments

 

 

Internet Protocol (IP) address of the system

Format is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx represents

 

a decimal number from 0–255.

 

 

Network Mask

If you are unsure, leave this blank; the system

 

chooses an appropriate mask.

 

 

Default Router/Gateway address

Router address is required to communicate with

 

the host device from anywhere other than the

 

local network segment.

 

 

Enabling DHCP on the System

Verify that the system DHCP protocol is enabled by setting the control panel or by using CentreWare IS. DHCP is enabled by default.

Note: To determine the system’s IP address, select System Identification. On the control panel, press the System button, select Information, press the OK button, select System Identification, and then press the OK button to view the system’s IP address.

Changing or Modifying the IP Address Using CentreWare IS

CentreWare IS provides a simple interface that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked systems from your desktop using an embedded web server. For complete information about CentreWare IS, click the Help button in CentreWare IS to go to the

CentreWare IS Online Help.

After setting the system’s IP address, you can modify TCP/IP settings using CentreWare IS.

1.Launch your web browser.

2.Enter the system’s IP address in the browser’s Address field (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).

3.Click Properties.

4.Select the Protocols folder on the left sidebar.

5.Select TCP/IP.

6.Enter or modify the settings, and then click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.

Using Host Names with the Domain Name Service (DNS)

The system supports DNS through an embedded DNS resolver. The DNS resolver protocol communicates with one or more DNS servers to resolve the IP address for a given host name or the host name for a given IP address.

To use an IP host name for the system, the system administrator must configure one or more DNS servers and a local DNS domain name space database. To set up the printer for DNS, supply a maximum of two DNS name server IP addresses.
