Appendix ❒ The IP address acquired from DHCP can be checked on the configuration page. For information about printing a configuration page, see p.161 "Printing a Configuration Page". ❒ When using WINS server, set the WINS server as shown on p.321 "Configuring the WINS Server". ❒ Under the WINS server, host names can be used for remote network printer ports. ❒ If you are not using the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the DHCP server so the same IP address is assigned every time. ❒ When there are multiple DHCP servers, make the same reservation for all. This printer uses information from the DHCP server that responds first. ❒ The DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you are using the DHCP relayagent on an ISDN line network, expensive line charges will be incurred. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever a packet is transferred from the printer. Using AutoNet If the printer IP address is not assigned by a DHCP server automatically, a temporary IP address starting with 169.254, which is not used on the network, can be automatically selected by the printer. You must change this setting to "on" to use AutoNet. See p.219 "autonet". ❒ The DHCP-assigned IP address has priority over that selected by AutoNet. The printer reboots at this time, and is temporarily unable to print. ❒ You can check the current IP address on the configuration page. For details about printing a configuration page, see p.161 "Printing a Configuration Page". ❒ When AutoNet is running, the printer name is not registered on the WINS server. ❒ No communication can take place except between units started up using AutoNet. However, communication can take place with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.2.3 or higher versions. Configuring the WINS Server The printer can be configured to register its NetBIOS name with a WINS server when the power is turned on. This enables the NetBIOS name of the printer to be specified from SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin even in a DHCP environment. This section explains configuring the WINS server. 321
