• If the printer driver for the con-
nected printer has already been
installed, the icon is automati-
cally added to the Printers fold-
er. In this case, driver
installation is not necessary.
However, since the 1394 Inter-
face Unit does not support bidi-
rectional transmissions, if
options are installed, set up op-
tions from the Printer Driver
Properties. See p.37 “Installing
the Printer Driver and Soft-
ware”.
If the 1394 Interface Unit has been
installed properly, the printer icon
automatically changes from "Use
Printer Offline" to "Ready" when-
ever the 1394 interface cable is con-
nected.
Important
❒ If [Add Printer Wizard] starts on
the computer running Win-
dows 95/98/Me, click [Cancel].
❒ Do not connect new IEEE 1394
or USB devices to the printer or
turn on the printer while install-
ing the printer driver.
❒ To uninstall the printer driver,
first disconnect the 1394 inter-
face cable.
Note
❒ The 1394 Interface Unit cannot
accept print data from more
than one computer at the same
time. If a computer sends print
data while it is receiving print
data from another computer, an
error message appears.
❒ The 1394 Interface Unit does not
support bidirectional transmis-
sions.
Printing with IP over 1394
With the IPP driver of Windows Me
and by setting the IEEE 1394 Interface
IP Address for the IEEE 1394 with the
printer, you can make prints from a
computer running Windows Me.
Preparation
"IP over 1394" must be set on the
control panel and an IEEE 1394 In-
terface IP address must be speci-
fied.
For more information about how
to make printer settings, see p.34
“IEEE 1394 Configuration”.
Limitation
❒ With Windows Me, the provided
1394 driver can be used. Windows
95/98, Windows 2000, Windows
NT 4.0, and Macintosh do not sup-
port ”IP over 1394”.
❒ When using the 1394 Interface Unit
in a network, the Ethernet interface
cannot be used in the same net-
work.
❒ Set the Subnet Masks for the 1394
Interface Unit and the Ethernet in-
terface so they do not overlap.
Note
❒ The supported protocols are IPP
and FTP.
• To use IPP, see p.26 “Installing
the Printer Driver”.
• To use FTP, see the Network
Printing Guide.
❒ The maximum number of simulta-
neous print requests when con-
necting with IP over 1394 includes
the print requests from the Ether-
net interface. For more informa-
tion, see the Network Printing
Guide.
