SR200 & SR300 Printer User Guide

Use the 

Refresh

 button to obtain current values from the printer.

If the printer is set to use a LAN connection (from the LCD panel), this tab displays 
the default settings (which cannot be changed). If the printer is connected using a 
USB connection, you can use this page to set the IP address and other network 
values. See 

About Network Settings

 in the 

Installation Guide

.

If scanning does not find a printer, you can register it by entering the IP address. 
Printers with IPSec enabled must be registered before information will be displayed.

If you need to assign a printer name different from a choice provided by the printer, 
make sure the printer is installed with a USB connection and then enter the new 
printer name. The name can include only ASCII alphabetic or numeric characters, 
(other characters are not displayed at the printer). Your network administrator can 
provide information about allowed or required names on your network.

Security settings, which can be set only when the printer is connected using a USB 
connection, are available. Use the 

Details

 button to open the IPSec Setting dialog 

box. See the 

Installation Guide

 for the steps to follow.

firmware when your service provider 
recommends it.

For both USB-connected and Ethernet-connected 
printers, the tab shows:
