Host Interface

I/O Buffer

You can select the size of the I/O buffer. Normally it is not necessary to change this setting.

I/O Timeout

You can specify how many seconds the printer should wait before ending a print job. If printing operation is frequently interrupted by data from other ports, you can increase the timeout period.

Network

You can configure the network settings. For details, see Configuration.

Machine IPv4 Address

You can specify whether to set the IPv4 address automatically or manually.

Auto-Obtain (DHCP)

When DHCP is set to On, the IPv4 address, subnet mask address, and gateway address cannot be changed. To change them, set DHCP to Off. Contact your administrator for information about the network configuration.

Specify

  • IP Add.

    Manually specify the IPv4 address.

  • Subnet M

    Manually specify the subnet mask.

  • Gateway

    Manually specify the gateway address.

IPv6 Stateless Setting

You can specify whether to enable or disable stateless IPv6 address auto configuration.

DHCPv6 Configuration

You can configure the DHCPv6 settings.

DHCPv6 Setting

You can specify whether or not to enable DHCPv6.

Operation Mode

You can specify the operation mode for DHCPv6 when [DHCPv6 Config.] is set to [Active].

DNS Server Address

You can specify how the DNS server address is specified when [DHCPv6 Config.] is set to [Active].

IPsec

This is a security function. For details, contact your administrator.

NW Frame Type

You can specify the frame type for NetWare.

Effective Protocol

You can specify the effective protocol.

Ethernet Speed

You can specify the network speed to operate the printer. If a communication error occurs because of compatibility problems with the hub, select a speed suitable for your network environment.

In order to reduce power consumption of network devices, the default Ethernet speed of the printer does not exceed 100BASE-TX (100 Mbps). If you want to communicate using a higher speed, select [Auto Select: Enable 1Gbps] to enable 1000BASE-T (1Gbps) communication.

IEEE802.1X Auth.(Ethernet)

You can specify IEEE 802.1X Ethernet authentication. For details about IEEE 802.1X authentication, see Security Guide.

Restr.IEEE802.1X Auth.Def.

You can restore the default IEEE 802.1X setting.

LAN Type

You can select Ethernet or Wireless LAN.

If Ethernet and Wireless LAN are both connected, the selected interface has priority.

Permit SSL/TLS Comm.

You can set up encrypted communication for SSL/TLS. If you set to [Ciphertext Only], install the SSL certificate for the printer.

Parallel Interface

You can configure the parallel interface settings.

Parallel Timing

You can specify the parallel interface timing.

Parallel Comm. Speed

You can specify whether or not to use DMA transfer for receiving data.

Selection Signal Status

You can specify the selection signal level of the parallel interface.

Input Prime

You usually do not need to change this setting.

Bidirectional Comm.

You can specify whether or not to enable or disable bi-directional communication.

Wireless LAN

You can configure the wireless LAN settings.

Wireless LAN Easy Setup

You can set up wireless LAN automatically using Wi-Fi Protected Setup.

Communication Mode

You can specify the transmission mode for wireless LAN.

SSID Setting

You can specify the SSID settings to distinguish the access point in [Infrastructure Mode] or [802.11 Ad-hoc Mode].

The characters that can be used are ASCII 0x20-0x7e (32 bytes).

Ad-hoc Channel

You can specify the channel to use when [802.11 Ad-hoc Mode] has been selected. Set the channel that matches the type of the wireless LAN being used.

  • IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless LAN

    Frequency range:

    2412–2462 MHz (channels 1–11)

  • IEEE 802.11a Wireless LAN

    Frequency range:

    5180–5240 MHz (channels 36, 40, 44, and 48)

  • IEEE 802.11n Wireless LAN

    Frequency range:

    2412–2462 MHz (channels 1–11)

    5180–5240 MHz (channels 36, 40, 44, and 48)

Security Method

You can specify whether or not to enable the encryption method and security type when the encryption is enabled.

  • Off

  • WEP

    Press [Details], and then enter the WEP key using hexadecimal and ASCII characters.

  • WPA2

    Press [Details], and then select the Authentication Method.

    When you select WPA2, the Encryption Method is set to CCMP (AES) and cannot be changed.

    Select one of the following Authentication Methods:

    WPA2-PSK, WPA2

    When you select WPA2-PSK, enter a passphrase (from 8 to 63 characters).

Wireless LAN Signal

You can check the signal strength when using wireless LAN.

Restore Defaults

You can reset the wireless LAN settings to their default.

USB Settings

You can configure the communication parameters for computer-to-printer connection via USB.
