The Xerox Support Centre appears on the desktop for Windows printers or is placed in the Mac OS X dock. It provides a central location for accessing the following information:

■ 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:

■ Windows: Double-click the Xerox Support Centre icon

on your desktop.

■ Macintosh: Click the Xerox Support Centre icon in the

dock.

2. Select your printer from the Select Printer drop-down list.

Note: If you have a USB or parallel connection, some of the status information is not

available. You must have an Internet connection to view manuals and videos on the website.

Overview of Network Setup and Configuration

To set up and configure the network:

1. Connect the printer to the network using the recommended hardware and cables.

2. Turn on the printer and the computer.

3. Print the Configuration page and keep if for referencing network settings.

4. Configure the printer’s TCP/IP address, which is required to identify the printer on the

network.

■ Windows operating systems: Run the Installer on the Software and Documentation

CD-ROM to automatically set the printer’s IP address if the printer is connected to an

established TCP/IP network. You can also manually set the printer’s IP address on the control panel.

■ Macintosh systems: Manually set the printer’s TCP/IP address on the control panel.

5. Install the driver software on the computer from the Software and Documentation

CD-ROM. For information on driver installation, see the section in this chapter for the

specific operating system you are using.

Note: If the Software and Documentation CD-ROM is not available, you can download the

latest driver from

www.xerox.com/drivers.

Choosing a Connection Method

Connect the printer via Ethernet, USB, or parallel. A USB or a parallel connection is a direct connection and is 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 printer and must be purchased separately.This section includes:

■ Connecting via Ethernet (Recommended) on page 2-3

■ Connecting via USB on page 2-4

■ Connecting via Parallel on page 2-4

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). The CentreWare IS web interface enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked printers from your desktop.

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 an Ethernet hub, or cable or DSL

router, 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 printer to the hub with the second cable. Connect to any port on the hub except the uplink port.

Choosing a Connection Method

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 Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 or newer. Macintosh users must use Mac OS X, version 10.2 and higher.

USB Connection

A USB connection requires a standard A/B USB cable. This cable is not included with your printer and must be purchased separately. Verify that you are using the correct USB (1.x or

2.0) cable for your connection.

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

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

See also:

Installing the Printer Drivers on page 2-9

Connecting via Parallel

A Parallel cable connection can also be used for connecting to one computer. This type of connection provides the slowest data speeds. Parallel connection requires a standard-to-high density Parallel printer cable, (36-pin high-density 1284-C [male] to 36-pin low density 1284-B [male] cable), with a maximum length of three meters (10 feet). Connect the Parallel cable to the printer and the computer while they are both Off, and then turn them On. Install the printer driver from the Software and Documentation CD-ROM, and select the appropriate LPT Parallel port.

Configuring the Network Address

This section includes:

■ TCP/IP and IP Addresses on page 2-5

■ Automatically Setting the Printer’s IP Address on page 2-5

■ Dynamic Methods of Setting the Printer’s IP Address on page 2-6

■ Manually Setting the Printer’s IP Address on page 2-7

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 printer directly to your computer using Ethernet, follow the procedure for automatically setting the printer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address.

PCs and printers primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network. With TCP/IP protocols, each printer 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 printer 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 printers 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 printer 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 Printer’s IP Address

If the printer 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 printer. For further instructions, insert the Software and Documentation CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. After the Xerox Installer launches, follow the prompts for installation.

Note: For the automatic installer to function, the printer must be connected to an established

TCP/IP network.

Dynamic Methods of Setting the Printer’s IP Address

There are two protocols available for dynamically setting the printer’s IP address:

■ DHCP (enabled by default on all Phaser printers)

■ AutoIP

You can turn on/off both protocols using the control panel, or use CentreWare IS to turn on/off DHCP.

Note: You can view the printer’s IP address at any time. On the control panel, select

Information, press the OK button, select Printer Identification, and then press the

button.

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

3. Select Properties.

4. Select the Protocols folder on the left navigation panel.

5. Select TCP/IP.

6. In the BOOTP/DHCP Settings section, set the BOOTP/DHCP option to On or Off.

7. Click the Save Changes button.

Configuring the Network Address

Manually Setting the Printer’s IP Address

Note: Verify that your computer has a properly configured IP address for your network.

Contact your network administrator for more information.

If you are on a network without a DHCP server, or in an environment where the network administrator assigns printer IP addresses, you can use this method to manually set the IP address. Manually setting the IP address overrides DHCP and AutoIP. Alternatively, if you are in a small office with a single PC and use a dialup modem connection, you can manually set the IP address.

Information Required for Manual IP Addressing

Information Comments

Internet Protocol (IP) address of the printer 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 printer

chooses an appropriate mask.
