A superuser (with root login) must add the E-820 to the network’s IP host table or
other system database of network printers.

In the file or utility used by your network, specify the remote printer name, the print
server protocol, the queue, and the spool file for the E-820 name you assigned.

To verify the TCP/IP connection, ping the IP address or the host name. From any
computer on the network, at the command prompt, type:
ping <IP address>
Type the E-820 IP address assigned in E-820 Network Setup.
After the E-820 is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the name you gave to
the E-820:
ping <hostname>
The server should respond with a message such as
Reply from <IP address> ...
Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output from the IP address.
To stop the output, type
Control-C.
You can use the
ping
command at any time.
