Ethernet Port and TCP/IP Communication
The QLS-8100 Xe is a 10Base-T device that provides a 10Mbps ethernet
connection. Using hubs and routers, the printer can be connected directly
into a network using standard Category 5 (CAT5) cable or similar with a
RJ-45 connector.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) communication
provides a direct link to the QLS-8100 Xe printer via the ethernet port. Using
standard twisted-pair wiring, the printer can be connected to your existing
network and shared by all network users.
This method of communication provides a fast, bi-directional, real-time link
to the printer. However, it does not provide print server functionality. If you
require print server functionality and protocols other than TCP/IP, refer to
the following section for print server information.
Every ethernet device on the network contains a unique ethernet address
known as the MAC address. This address is programmed at the factory and
cannot be modified. Additionally, each device contains a TCP/IP layer
identified by a configurable IP address. Every TCP/IP device on the network
contains a unique IP address.
Your network administrator must assign IP addresses for your QLS-8100 Xe
printers. This is a common task performed on computers, printers, fax
machines, etc. to identify the devices by their unique IP addresses. The
QLS-8100 Xe printer does not support Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP), which automatically assigns an IP address to each device on the
network.
For simple printer/computer networks, you can assign IP addresses and
subnet masks manually and ensure that all devices are identified by unique
addresses. The default gateway address can remain at the default factory
setting of 0.0.0.0.
For detailed information on the topic of networking, refer to documentation
applicable to your network environment and/or contact your network
administrator.
