With LAN connections, simultaneous connections to multiple machines are possible. However, output data from
the computer to one machine at a time. Simultaneous output to multiple machines is not supported.
Step 1: Determining the Network Addresses
Important: Windows firewall function
During LAN communication, this machine uses TCP ports 9100 and 9500. If using the Windows
firewall function, set it so that ports 9100 and 9500 are not blocked.
Important: Network settings
The settings listed here are only an example. The procedure and settings given in this manual do not
match every environment. In an environment where the computer being used is connected to
multiple network devices and the Internet, inappropriate settings will have a large effect on the
entire network. For detailed information about the settings, consult your network administrator.
Determine the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway to connect the computer and this machine via a
LAN.

Remarks
IP address
192.168.1.XXX
192.168.1.YYY
Ensure that these are unique numbers
compared to other network devices and
that "XXX" and "YYY" represent unique
numbers from 1 to 254.
Subnet mask
255.255.255.0
255.255.255.0
Use the same number for the computer
and engraving machine.
Default gateway
192.168.1.AAA
192.168.1.BBB
"AAA" and "BBB" represent unique
numbers from 1 to 254. This setting
may not be necessary. For details,
check with your network administrator.
