Prepare a hub and other network devices, and connect the Ethernet cable to the printer.
Connect 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX cable to the printer's Ethernet port. For 1000BASE-T, the optional Gigabit Ethernet board is required.

An Ethernet cable is not supplied with this printer. Select your cable according to the network environment.
The printer's Ethernet and USB ports are not available when the Gigabit Ethernet board is attached to the printer.
(mainly North America)
For users in the United States of America: When using the optional Gigabit Ethernet board, properly shield twisted pair cable (STP cable) must be used for connections to host computer (and/or peripheral) in order to meet FCC emission limits.
Connecting to the standard Ethernet port
Attach the supplied ferrite core at the printer end of the Ethernet cable.
(mainly Europe and Asia)
(mainly North America)
Do not attach the ferrite core.
Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port.
(mainly Europe and Asia)
(mainly North America)
Connect the other end of the cable to the network, such as a hub.
Connecting to the Ethernet port of the Gigabit Ethernet board
Attach the ferrite core at the Gigabit Ethernet cable.
(mainly Europe and Asia)
Attach one ferrite core at the printer end of the Ethernet cable, and attach the other ferrite core about 10 cm (4.00 inches) () from this core making a loop as shown.
(mainly North America)
Do not attach the ferrite core. Use the shield twisted pair cable (STP cable) instead.
Connect the Ethernet cable to the Gigabit Ethernet board.
(mainly Europe and Asia)
(mainly North America)
Connect the other end of the cable to the network, for example using a hub.
