Specifying IP Addresses
Before specifying the machine’s protocol settings, you must assign the machine
with an IP address to enable communication between the machine and computers.
IMPORTANT
2  Before you perform the following operations in this section, make sure that the
machine is turned ON and physically connected to the network.
 Some items cannot be set using the Remote UI or NetSpot Device Installer. For
details about items that can be set with the Remote UI or NetSpot Device Installer,
see “Network Settings Table,” on p. 6-2.
 You can maintain security by setting the range of IP addresses of computers that
can obtain access to the machine.
- Once you set the range of IP addresses of computers on which items for the
machine can be set or browsed, it is not possible to use the Remote UI on
computers whose IP addresses are not allowed; a utility on the computers cannot
be used to set or browse detailed information concerning the machine.
- Once you set the range of IP addresses of computers from which data (print job)
can be sent to the machine, the machine rejects data sent from computers whose
IP addresses are not allowed. For instructions on how to specify the IP address
range, see “Setting the IP Address Range,” on p. 2-38.
Setting IPv4 Address

This section provides instructions on how to set the IPv4 address from the control
panel. After configuring the TCP/IPv4 settings, make sure that the network
connections are properly set. (See “Checking the Network Connection,” on p. 2-
33.)
For instructions on setting the IPv6 address, see “Setting IPv6 Address,” on p. 2-16.
IMPORTANT
Settings that have been changed from the control panel become effective after

 Even if you select ‘On’ for [DHCP], [BOOTP], or [RARP], you should enter an IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway address. If this information cannot be
obtained from the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server, the settings entered in this
step are used.
 If the machine is restarted after DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP settings are complete,
the TCP/IP Settings menu displays the IP address setting values obtained from
the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server. (If the IP address, host name, and domain
name have been previously set, they will be overwritten by the setting values
obtained from DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP.)
 If you use DHCP without the DNS dynamic update function, it is recommended
that an identical IP address be assigned to the machine at all times. (If the IP
address is not identical, the host name for the machine will not correspond to
the IP address.)
 It takes about two minutes to check whether the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP
settings can be used. If you plan to use none of these settings, it is
recommended that you turn them off.

Setting IPv6 Address

This section provides instructions on how to set the IPv6 address from the control
panel. After configuring the TCP/IPv6 settings, make sure that the network
connections are properly set. (See “Checking the Network Connection,” on p. 2-33.)
With IPv6 communication, multiple IPv6 addresses can be used at the same time.
The machine can use up to seven of the following IPv6 addresses:
 Link local address (1)
An address that is only valid within the same link. A link local address is
automatically set using a specific prefix (fe80::) and an interface identifier
generated from the MAC address of the machine. When the machine is using the
functions of IPv6, one link local address is always registered.
 Manual address (0 or 1)
A fixed address that is set from the control panel.
 Stateless address (0 to 6)
A stateless address is automatically set using the machine’s MAC address and
the prefix (information indicating the network belonged to) included in the RA
(Router Advertisement) notified by the router when the machine is started.
 Stateful address (0 or 1)
A stateful address can be obtained from a DHCP server using DHCPv6.

IMPORTANT
You cannot use the functions of IPv6 without using the functions of IPv4.
NOTE
Once the IP address is set from the control panel, you can check and change it from
the Remote UI. (See “Setting Up the Machine Using a Web Browser (Remote UI),”
on
p. 3-11.)

Printer Connection Method (LPD/Raw).........................................................................................4-3
4-1
After you have completed the protocol settings of the machine, you are ready to set
up each of the computers for printing.
 Connecting to a TCP/IP Network

All computers that use the printer must have TCP/IP client software installed and must
be enabled for TCP/IP network use. For details, see the manuals provided with the
operating system.
 Installing the Printer Driver and Specifying the Printer Destination Setting
4 To print from a computer, you must install a printer driver and specify a setting for the
printer destination. The printer destination setting differs depending on the print
application used for printing. Use the following information as a guide to determine the
print application you are using, and then perform the necessary operations.
 LPD
- LPD is the print application generally used with TCP/IP. See “Printer Connection
Method (LPD/Raw),” on p. 4-3.
 Raw
- Raw is a print application used with Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server
2008. It can print at higher speeds than LPD. See “Printer Connection Method
(LPD/Raw),” on p. 4-3.
IMPORTANT
To print from a computer, you must be able to access the machine from the
computer. Make sure that the settings of <IP Address Range> and <RX MAC
Address Set.> are set not to deny access from the computer. (See “Access Control,”
on p. 2-38.)
NOTE
If Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008 is on your network, you can set
up a print server for more efficient management of network printers. Once a print
server is set up, it can manage the print jobs. Also, by setting up a driver for the print
server, the printer driver can be installed in each computer via the network.
For instructions on how to set up print servers, see the Printer Driver Installation Guide.
4.2 Setting up a Computer for Printing

Printer Connection Method (LPD/Raw)
The following is the procedure for specifying the port setting.
NOTE
 After installing the LPD application, you can display the current print setting by setting
<LPD Print Settings> to ‘On’.
 If you are using Windows Vista, a dialog box may be displayed while you are
performing the procedure. In this case, enter a user name and password. For more
information, see the manuals provided with the operating system.
Installing a New Driver

For help, see the Printer Driver Installation Guide.
NOTE
The default print application will be Raw if the driver has been installed according to 4
the Printer Driver Installation Guide. If you wish to use LPD as the print application,

5-1
Printing Problems and Remedies
This section describes how to resolve basic printing problems.
Unable to Print from a Network.
Cause 1 The printer and cable are not properly connected.
Remedy After checking the connections, restart the machine.

Check that the machine is connected to the network using the proper cable.
(See the User’s Guide.)
Cause 2 The TCP/IP network is not properly set up.
5 Remedy Confirm that the IP addresses are properly set up. If the IP addresses were set
using DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP, confirm that they are operating.
Troubleshooting
Cause 3 The computer that is printing is not properly set up.
Remedy Check the following:

 Confirm that the proper printer driver is installed. For instructions on
installing the printer driver, see the Printer Driver Installation Guide.
 Confirm that the correct printer is set as the output destination for the
computer that is printing. Check the output destination in the [Printers]
folder in [Control Panel].
Cause 4 The name of the file being printed is too long.
Remedy Normally LPR (or the Microsoft TCP/IP Printer, if you are using Windows 2000/
XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008) sends jobs either under the name of the
application software used for printing, or the file name. However, a job name
longer than 255 bytes cannot be sent to the machine. To correct this problem,
shorten the file name.
Cause 5 The access from the IP address of the computer from which print data is sent is
restricted by the machine.
Remedy Check the settings for <IP Address Range>. (See “Setting the IP Address
Range,” on p. 2-38.)
5.2 Printing Problems and Remedies

Cause 6 An error message is displayed on the LCD display of the machine.
Remedy After confirming the error message, see Chapter 8, “Troubleshooting,” in the
Reference Guide, and perform the necessary operations according to the error
message displayed.
The Printer Port Name is not Displayed in [Print to the following port].
Cause 1 The machine and the cable are not properly connected.
Remedy Check that the machine is connected to the network using the proper cable,
and then restart the machine. (See the User’s Guide.)
Cause 2 The computer that is printing is not properly set up.
Remedy Check the following:

 Confirm that the proper printer driver is installed in each computer. For
instructions on installing the printer driver, see the Printer Driver
Installation
Guide.
 Confirm that the correct printer is set as the output destination for the
5
computer which is printing, and that the spool is properly set.
Troubleshooting
Detailed information concerning the machine cannot be set or browsed using the Remote UI
or utility.
Cause 1 The IP addresses of computers on which the Remote UI or utility is used are
not allowed by the machine.
Remedy Check the settings for <IP Address Range>. If the machine is set to restrict the
access from the IP address of a computer, you cannot browse the machine’s
information from the computer using the Remote UI. (See “Setting the IP
Address Range,” on p. 2-38.)
Cause 2 HTTP is disabled.
Remedy Set <Use HTTP> to ‘On’, and make sure that the same port number as set in
the machine is used on the browser. (See “Protocol Settings,” on p. 3-2.)
Cause 3 The Remote UI is disabled.
Remedy Set <Remote UI On/Off> to ‘On’. (See Chapter 6, “System Manager Settings,”
in the Reference Guide.)
Cause 4 SNMP is disabled.
Remedy Set <SNMP Settings> to ‘On’. (See “Communication Environment Setup,” on

p. 2-6.)
Printing Problems and Remedies 5-3

Cause 5 The SNMP community name does not match.
Remedy Check the correct SNMP community name is used. If the SNMP community
name set for your utility is different from the one set for the machine, the utility
will not detect the machine. (See “Communication Environment Setup,” on
p. 2-6.)

6-8 Glossary
D
Daemon
A process that runs in the background and performs a specified operation, at
predefined times or in response to certain events. Typical daemons include print
spoolers and automated network information system protocols.
Default
The machine is configured at the factory with settings that we recommend. These
are known as factory default settings. You can customize your machine by re-
configuring these settings.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A protocol which automatically specifies the

network settings of a client on a TCP/IP network. Many of the settings required to set
up TCP/IP, which is the standard protocol of the Internet, can be made automatically
using DHCP.
DNS
Domain Name System. The system that associates the IP address assigned to a
computer with the domain name. 6
DNS server
Appendix
Domain Name System server. A server which maintains a database that translates
the domain names of Internet servers, such as www.w3.org, into Internet Protocol
(IP) addresses, such as “18.176.0.26”. This enables clients to connect to a server
with a host name rather than a numeric IP address.
Domain
A management concept that divides large scale networks into groups for identifying
individual computers and users. The Internet is managed by classifying domains
according to geographical location or type (business, organization, educational
institution, etc.).
E
Ethernet
An industry standard LAN (Local Area Network) system for connecting multiple
computers. Data is sent from one computer to another by dividing it into packets, and
the packets reach their destinations smoothly without any collision with other packets.
Glossary 6-9
G
Gateway Address
The default address of a network or Web site. It provides a single domain name and
point of entry to the site.
H
HTTP
Hypertext Transfer Protocol. The client-server TCP/IP protocol used on the World
Wide Web for the transfer of HTML (Hyper Text Mark-up Language) documents
across the Internet.
I
Internet Protocol (IP)
The underlying set of networking rules that describes how data is transmitted across
the Internet. Internet Protocol enables data from one computer to be split into
packets, and sent to another computer with a specific IP address.

6 IP address
Appendix
Internet Protocol address. A network address used by IP (Internet Protocol) to

specify a computer or device on the Internet. Currently, two versions of IP are in use:
IPv4 and IPv6.
IPv4
Internet Protocol version 4. An IPv4 address is a 32-bit numeric address, usually

written as four numbers delimited by periods. For example, ‘128.121.4.5’.
IPv6
Internet Protocol version 6. An IPv6 address is 128-bit long and consists of eight
groups of four hexadecimal digits delimited by colons. For example,
‘2002:0db6:58b1:02c3:3308:7a2e:6309:2665’. In an IPv6 network, a computer or
device can use multiple addresses, as represented by link local address, stateless
address, etc.
L
Log on
Entering a Department or User ID and password as a means of user authentication
to start a computer session or access to a service.
6-10 Glossary
LPD
Line Printer Daemon. A daemon is a program that runs, without human intervention,
to accomplish a given task. The Line Printer Daemon controls the flow of print jobs
to a printer.
M
MAC address
Media Access Control address. The hardware address of the network adapter of a
computer connected to a local area network.
N
NetSpot
Network management software that enables the setup and management of multiple
printers connected to a network from one central location. A network manager can
monitor conditions of network printers, ascertain online/offline status, error status, the
amount of paper in cassettes, verify information on mounted fonts, and other
readings. All the functions that are conventionally conducted through the operation
panel of the respective machines can be performed from one location. 6
Appendix
P
PDF
Portable Document Format. The page description language used in Adobe Systems’
Acrobat document exchange system, which is restricted neither by device nor
resolution. PDF displays documents in a way that is independent of the original
application software, hardware, and operating system used to create those
documents. A PDF document can contain any combination of text, graphics, and
images.
PING
PING is a command line utility that allows you to send a request to another machine
on the network which hopefully then replies.This action sends Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages to verify IP-level connectivity to
another TCP/IP computer. The action prompts the receipt of corresponding Echo
Reply messages, along with the round-trip times. Ping Host is based on the Ping
command, the primary TCP/IP command used to troubleshoot connectivity,
reachability, and name resolution.
Protocol
A set of rules that govern the transmission of data across a network. Examples of
protocols are DHCP, BOOTP, RARP, and TCP/IP.
Glossary 6-11
Proxy server
A server that provides a cache of files available on remote servers that are slow or
expensive to access. The term “proxy server” normally refers to a World Wide Web
server that, upon receiving a URL, tries to supply the requested file from its cache. If
the proxy server cannot locate the file in its cache, it obtains the file from the remote
server, and saves a copy in its cache so that the next request can be obtained locally.
R
RARP
Reverse Address Resolution Protocol. A protocol which associates a network adapter
address (MAC address) with an IP (Internet Protocol) address.
Raw
A print application used with Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003. It can print at higher
speeds than LPD (Line Printer Daemon).
Remote UI
Remote User Interface. The Remote UI is software that enables you to perform
operations, which are usually performed on the machine’s control panel, using a Web
6 browser (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Safari) over a network.
Appendix
S
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol. The network management protocol of TCP/IP.
In SNMP, agents, which can be hardware as well as software, monitor the activity of
the various devices on the network and report to the network console workstation.
Spool
Simultaneous Peripheral Operations On-Line. “Spooling” means putting jobs in a

buffer, which is a special area in memory or on a disk. Devices access data at
different rates. The buffer provides a holding area where the data is held until the
device for which it is meant is ready to access it.
Subnet
A portion of a network, which may be a physically independent network segment,
that shares a network address with other portions of the network, and is
distinguished by a subnet number. For example, all devices with IP addresses that
start with 100.100.100. would be part of the same subnet.
6-12 Glossary
Subnet Mask
The method used to determine to which subgroup, or subnet, an IP address belongs.
On TCP/IP networks, all devices whose IP addresses have the same prefix would
belong to the same subnet. Dividing a network into subnets is useful for both security
and performance reasons.
Switching hub
A network connection box to which a number of computers can be connected.
Conventional hubs send each data packet to every connected computer on the
network, whereas a switching hub forwards data packets from the network to the
appropriate computer, according to the packet’s address. Since a switching hub
forwards packets only to their intended recipients, it provides greater efficiency.
T
TCP/IP
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The protocol used to connect to the
Internet and wide area networks.
U 6
UFRII
Appendix
Ultra Fast Rendering II. A printing algorithm for realizing high speed monochrome
rendering. UFR II enables processing tasks to be executed and divided appropriately
between the host PC and the printer to greatly reduce overall printing time. The UFR
II printer driver supports only monochrome printers.
URL
Uniform Resource Locator. A standard way of specifying the location of an object,

usually a Web page on the Internet. The URL for a Web page would look something
like this: “http://www.w3.org/default.htm”. Here, “http:” indicates that a Web page is
being accessed, “www.w3.org” is the address of the server containing the Web page,
and “default.htm” is the file name under which the Web page is stored on the server.
