Preparation for Protocol Settings
Before you specify the machine’s protocol settings, you
must specify the machine’s IP address to enable
communication between the machine and your computers.
You can use any of the following to specify the settings.
Machine’s operation panel (Additional Functions menu)
ARP/PING commands
NetSpot Device Installer (Canon utility software)
NOTE
In the following operations in this section, the machine’s MAC
address is necessary. To check the MAC address from the machine’s
operation panel, print a USER’S DATA LIST. (See Chapter 13,
“Machine Settings,” in the Basic Guide.)
If you are using ARP/PING commands, the following steps directly
allocate the IP address to the machine. For this machine, in addition
to direct allocation of the IP address to the machine, you can use
DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP to specify the IP address. When the
machine is started or reset, it checks whether DHCP, BOOTP, or
RARP is being used, and then allocates the IP address using the first
available setting method. Because the machine’s IP address is
automatically allocated at this time, it is not necessary for you to
perform the following operations in this section. However if you are
reallocating the IP address, or if DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP cannot be
used, perform the following operations.
You can maintain security by setting a range of IP addresses of
computers that are allowed to 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/fax 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 “TCP/IP
Settings,” on p. 3-16.
