PORT SWITCHING METHOD
(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)
This program is used to set the method for switching
printer ports.
The machine can use the following three printer ports:
• USB port
• Network port
The factory default setting is "SWITCH AT END OF
JOB".
ENABLE USB PORT
(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)
This program is used to enable or disable printing via
the USB port.
This program is initially enabled (factory default
setting).
ENABLE NETWORK PORT
(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)
This program is used to enable or disable printing via
the network port.
This program is initially enabled (factory default
setting).
NETWORK SETTINGS
(When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed)
The NETWORK SETTINGS are used when the
machine is used as a network printer. The "NETWORK
SETTINGS" consist of the following programs:
IP ADDRESS SETTING
ENABLE TCP/IP
ENABLE NetWare
ENABLE EtherTalk
ENABLE NetBEUI
RESET THE NIC
IP ADDRESS SETTING
This program is used to set the IP address (IP
address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway) of the machine
when TCP/IP protocol is used on the network.
When "DHCP" is selected, the machine will obtain an IP
address automatically. This is the factory default setting.
When the machine is used on a TCP/IP network, be
sure to enable the "ENABLE TCP/IP" program.
ENABLE TCP/IP
This program must be enabled to use the machine on
a TCP/IP network. "IP ADDRESS SETTING" must
also be configured.
This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).
ENABLE NetWare
This program must be enabled to use the machine on
a network that uses NetWare protocol.
This program is initially enabled (factory default setting).
Selections
Description
SWITCH AT
END OF JOB
Automatic printer port selection
at the end of each print job.
SWITCH AFTER
I/O TIMEOUT
Automatic printer port selection if
the time set in "I/O TIMEOUT"
elapses.
Consult your network administrator
before configuring the NETWORK
SETTINGS.
After changing the settings, you must turn
off the machine’s power switch, wait
briefly, and then turn the switch back on in
order to make the changes take effect.
Some programs in the following are
marked by "*1". This indicates that a
message will appear at the end of the
setting procedure asking you to confirm
execution of the new setting. If needed,
you can cancel the new setting by
touching the [NO] key.
When DHCP is used, the IP address
assigned to the machine may
automatically be changed on
occasion. If this happens, printing
will not be possible.
This setting is only effective in a
network
environment that uses Ipv4 TCP/IP protocol.
To set an IP address on a Ipv6 TCP/IP
network, use the Web pages. In an IPv6
environment, the machine can use LPD or
IPP protocol.
