Note
If a static address is not selected,
or is set to 0.0.0.0, the interface
using the address assigned by
DHCP is used.
Note
Printers that register the printer
NetBIOS name on a WINS server
must be configured for the WINS
server. See p.92 WINS.
Supported DHCP servers: Micro-
soft DHCP server - included with
Windows 2000 Server, Windows
Server 2003, and Windows NT 4.0;
and the DHCP servers included
with NetWare and UNIX.
If you do not use the WINS server,
reserve the printer's IP address in
the DHCP server so the same IP
address is assigned every time.
To use the WINS server, change
the WINS server setting to active
using the control panel.
Using the WINS server, you can
configure the host name via the re-
mote network printer port.
DHCP relay-agent is not support-
ed. If you use DHCP relay-agent
on a network via ISDN, it will re-
sult in increased line charges. This
is because your computer connects
to the ISDN line whenever a packet
is transferred from the printer.
If there is more than one DHCP
server, use the same setting for all
servers. The machine operates us-
ing data from the DHCP server
that responds first.
Using AutoNet
If the printer IP address is not auto-
matically assigned by the DHCP serv-
er, a temporary IP address starting
with 169.254 and not used on the net-
work can be automatically selected by
the printer.
Note
The IP address assigned by the
DHCP server is given priority over
that selected by AutoNet.
You can confirm the current IP ad-
dress on the configuration page.
For more information about the
configuration page, see Printer Ref-
erence 2.
When AutoNet is running, the
NetBIOS name is not registered on
the WINS server.
The machine cannot communicate
with devices that do not have the
AutoNet function.
