7-1Chapter 7: NetworkingThe printer is a fast network capable printer and supportsan Ethernet 10/100 Base-Tx network connection.ProtocolsThe following protocols are supported:Initial Setting of the Printer’s IP AddressAll devices on the network must have an IP address. Theprinter comes configured from the factory to obtain anaddress automatically from your network’s DHCP server.If your network does not support DHCP or you want to setthe printer to a specific IP address, you must set itmanually.Setting the IP Address through DHCPMany networks have a Dynamic Host ConfigurationProtocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server automaticallyprograms an IP address into every terminal and printer onthe network that is configured to use DHCP. A DHCPserver is built into most cable and DSL routers. If you use acable or DSL router, see your the device documentation forinformation on IP addressing.TCP/IPv4, UDP, BOOTP, DHCP, ARP, ICMP, DDNS, WINS, LPRHTTP for Embedded Web ServerIPv6, ICMPv6, Address Auto Configuration and Neighbor Discoveryfor IPv6Host Resources MIB (RFC 1514), MIB II (RFC 1213), PrinterMIBv2 (3805), SNMPv1/v2Email SMTP client for alerts, POP3 for receiving print dataApple EtherTalk, BonjourNetware V5.5, V6.5IPX (SPX/NCP)LPDIn this Chapter...• Protocols• Initial Setting of thePrinter’s IPAddress• Configuring theDriver• Printer NetworkConfiguration• Notifications• IP Filtering• IPv6Implementation• SNMP
