I step 2: Setting up the TCP/IP protocol on the computer
To use IP Peer-to-Peer printing directly from the computer, the TCP/IP protocol must be installed
and set up on the computer.
If the TCP/IP protocol is used on the computer, proceed to “Step 3: Installing and setting up IP Peer-
to-Peer printer port on the computer'’ on page 20.
If not, install the TCP/IP protocol by referring to the Help menu for Windows 95, Windows 98 or
Windows NT 4.0. The IP Address, Subnet Mask and the Default Gateway must be assigned when
installing it. Set them using one of the following two ways.
If the TCP/IP protocol setting in the Network Card is set from the DHCP server, proceed to “Setting
from the DHCP server'’ below. If it is done by using printer’s operator panel display, proceed to
“Setting by direct entering” below.
■ Setting up from the DHCP server:
If the administrator manages the network at the DHCP server, each address Is automatically
assigned from the DHCP server.
■ Setting up by direct entering:
If the administrator manages the IP address, ask your network administrator to confirm the values,
and then enter them. If not, decide the value by referring to the example on page 14, and then enter
them.
