What’s Next?
You have now completed the hardware setup of your printer. There are
some more important steps:
1
If your language is other than English, refer to “Selecting a Message
Window Language” on page 14. Select the message window language
you prefer. If you print via the parallel or USB port, skip to step 3
2
Set your IP address in one of the following ways:
a. If your network supports DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol),
your IP address will be automatically assigned by the DHCP server when
you attach and power up your printer (refer to the NIC User’s Manual).
b. You may manually change the printer’s IP (Internet Protocol) address.
Refer to “Manually select an Ethernet IP Address” on page 15.
3
Connect the printer to your computer or a network.
4
Insert the Utilities and Documentation CD-ROM and follow the instruc-
tions on the screen to install a printer driver and printer utilities (refer to
“Software Installation” in the User’s Guide).
