2.10 Configuring the unit to
access the LAN
You can print documents, scan documents, receive
faxes or send faxes using a computer on the LAN. To
enable these features, you need to set the IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway for the unit.
Important:
L
Consult your network administrator when setting
the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway.
2.10.1 Setting up automatically with a
DHCP server
Your situation:
–
When only one unit is connected to the LAN.
If your network administrator manages the network with
a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server, it
will automatically assign an IP (Internet Protocol)
address, subnet mask, and default gateway to the unit.
1
After connecting the LAN cable to the unit and the
computer, connect the power cord.
L
The IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway will be set automatically.
2
Install Multi-Function Station on the computer that
you want to use it with. See page 22 for details.
Note:
L
You can connect two or more units and assign IP
addresses automatically with a DHCP server, but we
recommend assigning static IP addresses manually
for each unit to avoid unnecessary trouble.
2.10.2 Setting up manually
Your situation:
–
When your network administrator does not manage
the network with a DHCP server.
–
When two or more units are connected to the LAN.
You need to assign an IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway manually.
