Selecting a Printer
(Cont’d)
Network Settings
Caution
1)
Determine the “Network Setting” items according to the instructions of the network
administrator for the location where the printer unit is installed.
2)
Other network devices may be affected if the “Network Setting” is incorrect.
3) When only USB connection is used, there is no need to specify the “Network Setting”.
4) To apply the “Network Setting” to the printer unit without connecting via USB, do so using the
operation panel on the printer.
Network Setting: For specifying items related to the network (Ethernet). When the printer is connected
via the network, the set values are shown but setting is disabled.
When “Obtain and IP Address Automatically” is selected, the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway values are automatically acquired from the DHCP server. If the DHCP server is not found,
settings in the “Use the following IP Address” will apply.
Note
1) The IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway values that are automatically acquired
from the DHCP server are not shown.
2) The IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway values may change regularly according
to the DHCP server settings. To use a static IP address such as for the printer driver’s
application software, it is recommended that you select “Use the following IP Address”.
When “Use the following IP Address” is selected, specify the “IP Address”, “Subnet Mask”, and “Default
Gateway” fields accordingly.
Use “Session Timeout” to specify the timer interval before disconnecting when communication is not
established after print connection. The default setting is “None”.
The printer’s MAC address is shown in the “MAC Address” field.
