If the network you are using does not allow you to configure the router, configure the printer instead.
Appendix ❖ When static IP addresses are set for each interface • IP address: When set at the same value, the Ethernet interface is preferred. • Subnet mask: When a value overlaps, the Ethernet interface is preferred. • Gateway address: The value set is used. For the gateway address, set the gateway address located in the subnetwork set by the interface. If the value is outside the subnet range set by the interface, it operates as “0.0.0.0”.
Appendix ❒ The IP address acquired from DHCP can be checked on the configuration page. For information about printing a configuration page, see p.128 “Printing a Configuration Page”. ❒ When using WINS server, set the WINS server as shown on p.281 “Configuring the WINS Server”. ❒ Under the WINS server, host names can be used for remote network printer ports. ❒ If you are not using the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the DHCP server so the same IP address is assigned every time.
Appendix ❒ The WINS server is supported with Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or higher, and Windows 2000 Servers WINS Manager. ❒ For details about the WINS server settings, see Windows Help. ❒ If there is no reply from the WINS server, the NetBIOS name is registered by broadcast. ❒ The NetBIOS name can be entered using up to 13 alphanumeric characters. Using Web Image Monitor A Start a Web browser.
Appendix Using the Dynamic DNS Function Dynamic DNS is a function which dynamically updates (registers and deletes) records (A record and PTR record) managed by the DNS server. When a DNS server is part of the network environment to which this printer, a DNS client, is connected, records can be dynamically updated using this function. Updating Updating procedure varies depending on whether the printer IP address is static or acquired by DHCP.
Appendix • IEEE 1394 RNPXXXXXXXXXX (XXXXXXXXXX represents the lower 3-7 bytes of the MAC Address in hexadecimal) ❒ Dynamic update using message authentication (TSIG, SIG(0)) is not supported. DNS servers targeted for operation ❖ For static IP setting • Microsoft DNS servers with standard Windows 2000 Server/Windows Server 2003 features • BIND 8.2.
Appendix Configuring SSL Encryption This section describes how to configure SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Encryption To protect the communication path and establish encrypted communication, create and install the server certificate. There are two ways of installing a server certificate: create and install a self-certificate using the machine, or request a certificate from a certificate authority and install it.
Appendix C Install the server certificate using Web Image Monitor. Enabling SSL Enable the [SSL/TLS] setting using Web Image Monitor. To confirm whether SSL configuration is enabled, enter http://(machine’saddress) in your Web browser’s address bar to access this machine. If the “The page cannot be displayed” message appears, check the configuration as the SSL configuration is invalid. Creating and Installing the Self-Signed Certificate Create and install the server certificate using Web Image Monitor.
Appendix • Validity Period: Enter the period of time for which the server certificate is valid, in years. The default is one year. • Validity Start Date: Enter the start date of the validity of the server certificate. The default is the current date obtained from the internal clock of the computer that is accessing Web Image Monitor. G Click [OK]. [Installed] appears under [Certificate Status] to show that a server certificate for the printer has been installed.
Appendix • State/Province: Enter the state/province in which the device is located, using up to 128 characters (optional). The state/province name cannot include any spaces, and is case sensitive. • Country Code: Enter the country in which the device is located, using twoletter ISO 3166 abbreviation of the country (required). • Validity Period: Enter the period of time for which the server certificate is valid, in years. The default is one year.
Appendix E Click [Install]. F Enter the contents of the server certificate. In the displayed field, enter the contents of the server certificate issued by the certificate authority. For details about the displayed items and selectable items, see Web Image Monitor Help. G Click [OK]. [Installed] appears under [Certificate Status] to show that a server certificate for the printer has been installed. Enabling SSL After installing the server certificate in the printer, enable the SSL setting.
Appendix The administrator must explain the procedure for installing the certificate to users. If a warning dialog box appears while accessing the machine using the Web browser or IPP, start the Certificate Import Wizard and install a certificate. A When the [Security Alert] dialog box appears, click [View Certificate]. The [Certificate] dialog box appears. To be able to respond to inquiries from users about such problems as expiry of the certificate, check the contents of the certificate.
Appendix F Click [OK]. The certificate store location appears under [Certificate store:]. G Click [Next]. H Click [Finish]. I Click [OK]. The certificate is installed. ❒ When you create or change an IPP port using SmartDeviceMonitor for Client, enter "http://(machine's-address)/ printer" in [Printer URL] to access the printer.
Appendix Installing Font Manager 2000 ❒ Under Windows 2000/XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows NT 4.0, installing applications by Auto Run requires administrator permission. To install a printer driver by Auto Run, log on using an account that has administrator permission. A Quit all applications currently running. B Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. The installer starts. C Click [Font Manager 2000]. D Follow the instructions on the screen.
Appendix Using Adobe PageMaker Version 6.0, 6.5, or 7.0 Under Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows NT 4.0 with Adobe PageMaker, you need to copy PPD files to the PageMaker folder. PPD files have the .ppd extension in the folder “DRIVERS\PS\WIN9X_ME \(Language)\DISK1\” on the CD-ROM. The “WIN9X_ME” folder inside the “PS” folder is for Windows 95/98/Me. Use the folder at this level that is appropriate for the operating system you are currently using.
Appendix When Using Windows Terminal Service/MetaFrame The following explains how to use Windows Terminal Service and Maintenance. Operating Environment The following operating systems and MetaFrame versions are supported. ❖ Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition with SP6 or higher • MetaFrame 1.8 SP3/FR1 SP3/SP4 • MetaFrame XP 1.0 SP1/SP2/FR1 ❖ Windows 2000 Server/Advanced Server • MetaFrame 1.8 SP3/FR1 SP3/SP4 • MetaFrame XP 1.0 SP1/SP2/SP3/FR1/FR2/FR3 • MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.
Appendix ❖ Windows Terminal Service In an environment where Windows Terminal Service is installed, some printer driver functions are unavailable, even if no Windows Terminal Service functions are used. Use the install mode to install SmartDeviceMonitor for Client in an environment where Terminal Service is running on a Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition or Windows 2000 Server family computer.
Appendix ❖ MetaFrame's [Printer driver replication] Using [Printer driver replication], you can distribute printer drivers across all servers in a server farm. We strongly recommend testing this function in your network environment before using it for your work. • If the printer drivers are not properly copied, install them directly onto each server.
Appendix Cautions When Using Bluetooth Interface Unit The optional Bluetooth interface unit operation mode is set to [Public] as default. If the setting is changed to [Private], only registered computers can use this printer via the Bluetooth interface unit. Check the operation mode settings using Web Image Monitor or telnet. For details about using Web Image Monitor, see p.161 “Using Web Image Monitor”. For details about setting items, see Web Image Monitor Help.
