Preparations to print from Windows

Setup via a network (Windows)

Setup procedures

Set up the equipment

If there is no DHCP server on the network, you will need to 
configure the IP address of the computer and printer manually.
If you have been instructed to configure a static IP address by 
your company network administrator, internet provider, or 
router manufacturer, you will need to configure the IP address 
of the computer and printer manually.
Check the IP address of this equipment by printing the system 
setting list or pressing the [SETTING] button on the operation 
panel and [ADMIN] - [NETWORK] - [IPv4].

Note

• An incorrect IP address configuration may prevent the 

network from working or the internet from connecting. 
Check with your company network administrator or internet 
connection provider the IP address and other settings that 
can be configured for the machine.

• The servers (such as DHCP) that are available on the 

network may differ depending on the network environment 
being used. Check with your company network 
administrator, internet provider, or router manufacturer.

• Administrator rights are required for the setup.
• Unless otherwise noted, procedures required when using 

Windows 7 are listed in the section "Set up in Windows." 
Screens and procedures may differ depending on the OS.

Memo

• This machine is compatible with network Plug&Play. If all 

connected computers are running Windows 8/Windows 7/
Windows Vista/Windows XP/Windows Server 2012/
Windows Server 2008/Windows Server 2003, or if the 
connected router is compatible with network Plug&Play, an 
IP address will be configured automatically, even if there is 
no server on the network. There is no need to configure an 
IP address for the computer and printer manually, so start 
setting up the machine from Step 4.

1

Turn the power to the machine and the 
computer ON.

2

Configure the IP address and other settings 
in Windows.

Note

• Skip to Step 3 if an IP address and other settings have 

already been configured in Windows, or if they are 
obtained automatically.

(1)

Start Windows.

(2)

Click [Start] and select [Control Panel].

(3)

Click [View network status and tasks].

(4)

Click [Local Area Connection], and click 
[Properties] from the [Local Area 
Connection Status] screen.

Turn the power to the machine and the computer ON.

Configure the IP address and other settings of the computer.

Configure the IP address and other settings of the machine.

Install the drivers and Standard TCP/IP Port using the 
"software DVD-ROM" supplied with the machine, and 
configure the network printer.
