Protocol Settings
This section describes how to specify the protocol settings for the machine using
the control panel. If you are configuring the settings for the first time, use the control
panel of the machine.
After configuring the settings, you can change them using software other than the
control panel of the machine. For details, see "Network Setting Items," on p. 8-2.

Specify the TCP/IPv4 settings.
If you have not entered the TCP/IPv4 settings yet, enter them now. (For more
information, see "TCP/IP Settings (IPv4)," on p. 3-3.)

SMB and WINS Settings
To use the machine on a NetBIOS network, specify the SMB settings. To resolve a
name with WINS, specify the WINS settings using the following procedure.
To specify the SMB settings, you need to use the optional UFR II/PCL/PS Printer
Kit, the optional Super G3 FAX Board, or the optional Universal Send Kit.
WINS (Windows Internet Name Service) is a service for associating a NetBIOS
name (which is a computer name or printer name on a NetBIOS network) with an IP
address. To use WINS, specify the IP address settings for the WINS server.
