Supported operating systems
The following table shows the network environments supported by the
printer:
• TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
• DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
• BOOTP: Bootstrap Protocol
Configuring TCP/IP
Your printer can be set up with a variety of TCP/IP network information,
such as an IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway, and DNS addresses.
There are several ways in which your printer can be assigned a TCP/IP
address, depending on your network.
• Static addressing: A TCP/IP address is assigned manually by the
system administrator.
• Dynamic addressing via BOOTP/DHCP (default): A TCP/IP address
is assigned automatically by the server.
Item Requirements
Network interface • 10/100 Base-TX
Network operating
system • Windows 98/Me/NT 4.0/2000/XP/2003
• Mac OS 10.3 and above (TCP/IP only)
Network protocols • TCP/IP
• EtherTalk
• HTTP 1.1
• SNMP
Dynamic
addressing server • DHCP, BOOTP
Note
• Before configuring TCP/IP, you need to set the network
protocol to TCP/IP.
Static addressing
To enter a TCP/IP address from your printer’s control panel, take the
following steps:
1 Press Menu until Network appears on the bottom line of the
display and press OK.

Repeat this to complete the address from the 1st byte to the 4th
byte.
6 When you have finished, press OK.
7 Repeat step 5 and 6 to configure the other TCP/IP parameters:
Subnet Mask and Gateway address.
8 Press Stop to return to Standby mode.
Dynamic addressing (BOOTP/DHCP)
To have a TCP/IP address assigned automatically by the server, take the
following steps:
1 Press Menu until Network appears on the bottom line of the
display and press OK.
2 Press OK when TCP/IP appears.
3 Press the Scroll buttons until DHCP or BOOTP appears and press
OK.
4 Press Stop to return to Standby mode.
Configuring EtherTalk
EtherTalk is AppleTalk used in an Ethernet network. This protocol is
widely used in Macintosh network environments. To use EtherTalk, take
