If the SMTP server is located in your LAN (Local Area network), the address should be set to the SMTP server in your LAN. The SMTP server located outside of your LAN may not be available for security reason. For further information please contact your network administrator (☞ p.29). It may be required for the authentication depending on the SMTP server.
Q&A Q Can I update the firmware of the Network Board. It is possible to update the firmware through the network. It is required to have a special tool for the updating. For further information please consult your local dealer. The version number of the firmware is indicated on the lower part of the“Initial Setting” page.
Chapter 7 Appendix Q What are the rules for IP address assignment? A If the network is constructed with TCP/IP protocol, a unique IP address is required for each piece of network equipment. The following are basic rules of the assignment. Rule1 Do not configure the same IP address to the network equipment in the same network group. Each piece of equipment must be assigned a unique IP address. If the IP address is set [192.168.x.x], the Subnet Mask should be set [255.255.255.0] for example.
