How to Start the Automatic Device Discovery

Start the first-time automatic device discovery by selecting the

icon (Printer net scan (new)) on the

RPMU's tool bar.

After entering a folder name for the new scan, for example "4247–X03". The following dialog is displayed:

The From and To IP-addresses define the start and stop addresses of the range in which the connected
printers will be checked. Mask defines the Netmask for the search procedure.

The value set for Time Out defines the time the program waits for a reply from a device connected to
each IP-address. If no printer is detected, after the time has passed, the program goes to the next IP
address within the range. The Time Out setting is useful when performing a device discovery procedure
on large networks that normally take a long time. The Time Out setting ranges between 300 milliseconds
(ms) and 100 seconds.

The value set for Workgroup in the text area defines the workgroup name of the printers to be searched.
The value set for Search for Printer containing text defines the text to be searched in the printer's
name.

Once the printers connected to the network have been discovered and identified with their IP-address,
they can be grouped in a logical way so that the user can access them quickly and easily.
