Reviewing Frequently-asked Questions

Question Answer

How do I know if my
Printer has the Ethernet
option installed?

All models come with Ethernet installed as standard
equipment.

What PC operating
systems work with my
Ethernet Printer?

The Windows 2000/ XP / Server 2003 operating systems
work with your Ethernet Printer.

How do I connect my
Printer to my network?

You can connect from the RJ45 network connection on the
back of your Printer to an available connection on your
network (not directly to your PC). You can use a good
CAT-5 or better cable to make this connection.

How can I find the MAC
address of my Ethernet
Printer?

• If you know the IP address of your Printer, you can see

the MAC address on the home web page of the Print
Server.

OR

• If you do not know the IP address or the Printer does

not work with a usable IP address, then the MAC
Address can be found by two methods. These are:

1. The MAC address is listed in the data printed on

the “Printer Settings” self-test card.

2. The Fargo IP-Tracer software tool on the driver CD

can be used to find the MAC address of the printer.
(Note: This can be installed and used to locate all
the Fargo compatible Printers on your network.)
