To use the machine as a network scanner, the machine must be configured with a TCP/IP address. You can
set or change the address settings from the control panel (See Control Panel Setup in the Network User’s
Guide) or by using the BRAdmin Light software. If you installed the machine following the instructions for a
network user in the Quick Setup Guide then the machine should already be configured for your network.
Note
• For network scanning, a maximum of 25 clients can be connected to one machine on a network. For
example, if 30 clients try to connect at a time, 5 of those clients will not be shown on the LCD.
• If your PC is protected by a firewall, and is unable to network scan, you may need to configure the firewall
settings. For more information, see Firewall settings (For Network users) on page 108.
