Using DHCP Using DHCP You can use the printer in a DHCP environment. You can also register the printer NetBIOS name on a WINS server when it is running. • Printers that register the printer NetBIOS name on a WINS server must be configured for the WINS server. • Supported DHCP servers are Microsoft DHCP Server included with Windows Server 2003/2003 R2/2008/2008 R2, and the DHCP server included with NetWare and UNIX. • If you do not use the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the DHCP server so the same IP address is assigned every time. • To use the WINS server, change the WINS server setting to "active" using the control panel. • Using the WINS server, you can configure the host name via the remote network printer port. • DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you use DHCP relay-agent on a network via ISDN, it will result in increased line charges. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever a packet is transferred from the printer. • If there is more than one DHCP server, use the same setting for all servers. The printer operates using data from the DHCP server that responds first. • DHCP servers can operate in an IPv6 environment, but they cannot be configured to allocate IPv6 addresses or obtain host names. Using AutoNet 8 If the printer IPv4 address is not automatically assigned by the DHCP server, a temporary IP address starting with 169.254 and not used on the network can be automatically selected by the printer. • The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that selected by AutoNet. • You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page. For more information about the configuration page, see p.99 "Test Printing". • When AutoNet is running, the NetBIOS name is not registered on the WINS server. • The printer cannot communicate with devices that do not have the AutoNet function. However, this printer can communicate with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.2.3. or higher. 177
