Setting Up the Network

This section includes:

■ Choosing a Connection Method on page 2-3

■ Configuring the Network Address on page 2-5

■ Connecting via Ethernet (Recommended) on page 2-4

Choosing a Connection Method

Connect the printer 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 printer 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 printer 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 printer and turn it on.

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

Setting Up the Network

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.

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 printer 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 printer requires a unique IP address.

Configuring the Network Address

This section includes:

■ TCP/IP and IP Addresses on page 2-5

■ Automatically Setting the Printer’s IP Address (Windows) 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 2-8

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.

Knowledge Base at www.xerox.com/office/7760support

Automatically Setting the Printer’s IP Address (Windows)

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 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.

Configuring the Network Address

Using Host Names with the Domain Name Service (DNS)

The printer 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 printer, 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.

Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS)

The printer supports Dynamic DNS through DHCP. You must have DHCP enabled on the printer for DDNS to function. Your network’s DHCP server must also support Dynamic DNS updates through option 12 or option 81 support. See your network administrator for details.

1. Launch your web browser.

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 sidebar.

5. Select TCP/IP.
