Setting Up the Network  
Setting Up the Network  
This section includes:  
Choosing a Connection Method  
Connect the printer to the network via Ethernet or USB. Hardware and cabling requirements  
vary for the different connection methods. Cabling and hardware are generally not included  
with your printer and must be purchased separately.  
Connecting via Ethernet (Recommended)  
Ethernet can be used for one or more computers. It supports many printers and systems on an  
Ethernet network. An Ethernet connection is recommended because it is faster than a USB  
connection. It also allows you direct access to CentreWare Internet Services (IS).  
CentreWare IS provides a simple interface that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor  
networked printers from your desktop using an embedded web server. For complete  
information about CentreWare IS, click the Help button in CentreWare IS to go to the  
CentreWare IS Online Help.  
Network Connection  
Depending on your particular setup, the following hardware and cabling is required for  
Ethernet.  
If you are connecting to one computer, an Ethernet RJ-45 crossover cable is required.  
If you are connecting to one or more computers with a hub, an Ethernet hub and two  
twisted-pair (category 5/RJ-45) cables are required.  
If you are connecting to one or more computers using a cable or DSL router, a cable or  
DSL router and two or more twisted-pair (category 5/RJ-45) cables are required. (One  
cable for each device.)  
If you are connecting to one or more computers with a hub, connect the computer to the  
hub with one cable, and then connect the printer to the hub with the second cable. Connect  
to any port on the hub except the uplink port.  
TCP/IP and EtherTalk are the most common protocols used with Ethernet. To print using a  
TCP/IP protocol, each computer and printer requires a unique IP address.

Setting Up the Network  
Standalone (Cable or DSL) Network Connection  
For information about setting up a cable or DSL connection for your printer, go to  
See also:  
Connecting via USB  
If you are connecting to one computer, a USB connection offers fast data speeds. However, a  
USB connection is not as fast as an Ethernet connection. To use USB, PC users must have  
Microsoft Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows XP, or Windows 2000. Macintosh users  
must use Mac OS 9.x and higher.  
USB Connection  
A USB connection requires a standard A/B USB cable. This cable is not included with your  
printer and must be purchased separately. Verify that you are using the correct USB cable for  
your connection.  
1. Connect one end of the USB cable to the printer and turn it on.  
2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the computer.

Configuring the Network Address  
Configuring the Network Address  
This section includes:  
TCP/IP and IP Addresses  
If your computer is on a large network, contact your network administrator for the appropriate  
TCP/IP addresses and additional configuration information.  
If you are creating your own small Local Area Network or connecting the printer directly to  
your computer using Ethernet, follow the procedure for automatically setting the printer’s  
Internet Protocol (IP) address.  
PCs and printers primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network.  
With TCP/IP protocols, each printer and computer must have a unique IP address. It is  
important that the addresses are similar, but not the same; only the last digit needs to be  
different. For example, your printer can have the address 192.168.1.2 while your computer has  
the address 192.168.1.3. Another device can have the address 192.168.1.4.  
Generally, Macintosh computers use either TCP/IP or the EtherTalk protocol to talk to a  
networked printer. For Mac OS X systems, TCP/IP is preferred. Unlike TCP/IP, however,  
EtherTalk does not require printers or computers to have IP addresses.  
Many networks have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server  
automatically programs an IP address into every PC and printer on the network that is  
configured to use DHCP. A DHCP server is built into most cable and DSL routers. If you use a  
cable or DSL router, see your router’s documentation for information on IP addressing.  
See also:  
Automatically Setting the Printer’s IP Address  
If the printer is connected to a small established TCP/IP network without a DHCP server, use  
the installer on the Software and Documentation CD-ROM to detect or assign an IP address to  
your printer. For further instructions, insert the Software and Documentation CD-ROM into  
your computer’s CD-ROM drive. After the Installer launches, follow the prompts for  
installation.  
Note: For the automatic Installer to function, the printer must be connected to an established  
TCP/IP network.

Configuring the Network Address  
Dynamic Methods of Setting the Printer’s IP Address  
Set the printer’s IP address using any of the following methods. DHCP is enabled by default on  
all Phaser printers.  
DHCP  
CentreWare IS  
AutoIP  
Information Required for Manual IP Addressing  
Information  
Comments  
Internet Protocol (IP) address of the printer  
Format is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx represents  
a decimal number from 0–255.  
Network Mask  
If you are unsure, leave this blank; the printer  
chooses an appropriate mask.  
Default Router/Gateway address  
Router address is required to communicate with  
the host device from anywhere other than the  
local network segment.  
Enabling DHCP on the Printer  
Verify that the printer DHCP protocol is enabled by setting the control panel or by using  
CentreWare IS. DHCP is enabled by default on all Phaser printers.  
Note: To determine the printer’s IP address, select Printer Identification on the control  
panel.  
See also:  
Changing or Modifying the IP Address Using CentreWare IS  
CentreWare IS provides a simple interface that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor  
networked printers from your desktop using an embedded web server. For complete  
information about CentreWare IS, click the Help button in CentreWare IS to go to the  
CentreWare IS Online Help.  
After setting the printer’s IP address, you can modify TCP/IP settings using CentreWare IS.  
1. Launch your web browser.

Configuring the Network Address  
Using Host Names with the Domain Name Service (DNS)  
The printer supports DNS through an embedded DNS resolver. The DNS resolver protocol  
communicates with one or more DNS servers to resolve the IP address for a given host name  
or the host name for a given IP address.  
To use an IP host name for the printer, the system administrator must configure one or more  
DNS servers and a local DNS domain name space database. To set up the printer for DNS,  
supply a maximum of two DNS name server IP addresses.  
Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS)  
The printer supports Dynamic DNS through DHCP. You must have DHCP enabled on the  
printer for DDNS to function. Your network’s DHCP server must also support Dynamic DNS  
updates through option 12 or option 81 support. See your network administrator for details.  
1. Launch your web browser.  
2. Enter the printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).  
3. Select Properties.  
4. Select the Protocols folder on the left sidebar.  
5. Select TCP/IP.  
6. In the BOOTP/DHCP Settings section, set the BOOTP/DHCP option to ON.  
7. To enable DDNS, enter the following DDNS/WINS settings information:  
DDNS: Set to ON.  
Release Host Name: Set to NO.  
DDNS/WINS Name: Use the default name provided by Xerox or enter another name.

Use Tray 1 (MPT) for envelopes, thick card stock, and custom size paper.  
Fan paper, transparencies, or other specialty media before loading in the paper tray.  
Print envelopes, labels, and transparencies on one-side only.  
See Printing Envelopes on page 3-27 for information on how to minimize wrinkling and  
embossing that may occur when printing envelopes.  
Do not overload the paper trays. Do not load paper above the fill line indicated on the  
paper guide.  
Adjust the paper guides to fit the paper. For Trays 2–5, the paper guides click into place  
when they are adjusted correctly.  
Use paper or other approved media from a new package if excessive jams occur.

Paper That May Damage Your Printer  
Your printer is designed to use a variety of media types for print jobs. However, some media  
can cause poor output quality, increased paper jams, or damage to your printer.  
Unacceptable media includes:  
Rough or porous media  
Plastic media other than supported transparencies  
Paper that has been folded or wrinkled  
Paper with staples  
Envelopes with windows or metal clasps  
Padded envelopes  
Non-laser glossy or coated paper  
Perforated media

Paper Storage Guidelines  
Providing good storage conditions for your paper and other media contributes to optimum  
print quality.  
Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper items are susceptible to  
damage from ultraviolet (UV) and visible light. UV radiation, which is emitted by the sun  
and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly damaging to paper items. The intensity and length of  
exposure to visible light on paper items should be reduced as much as possible.  
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.  
Avoid attics, kitchens, garages, and basements for storing paper. Inside walls are drier than  
outside walls where moisture can collect.  
Store paper flat. Paper should be stored on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.  
Avoid having food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled.  
Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the printer.  
Leave paper in the original packaging. For most commercial cut-size grades, the ream  
wrapper contains an inner lining that protects the paper from moisture loss or gain.  
Leave the media inside the bag until you are ready to use it; reinsert unused media in the  
bag and reseal it for protection. Some specialty media is packaged inside resealable plastic  
bags.  
Supported Paper Sizes and Weights  
The following sections provide information about paper sizes and weights supported in the  
printer trays. For more detailed information about supported paper and other media, print the  
Paper Tips page:  
1. On the control panel, select Information, and then press the OK button.  
2. Select Information Pages, and then press the OK button.  
3. Select Paper Tips, and then press the OK button to print.

See also:  
Envelopes Guidelines  
Use only paper envelopes specified in the Supported Paper Sizes and Weights table.  
Successful envelope printing is highly dependent on the quality and construction of the  
envelopes. Use envelopes made specifically for laser printers.  
It is recommended that you maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.  
Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid the effects of moisture and dryness  
which can affect print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the  
envelopes to seal before or during printing.  
Avoid padded envelopes; purchase envelopes that lie flat on a surface.  
Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading by setting a heavy book on top of  
the envelopes.  
If wrinkling or embossing problems occur, use a different brand of envelopes made  
specifically for laser printers.  
Caution: Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps; they can damage the printer.  
Damage caused by using unsupported envelopes is not covered under the Xerox warranty,  
service agreement, or Total Satisfaction Guarantee. The Total Satisfaction Guarantee is  
available in the United States and Canada. Coverage may vary outside these areas, please  
contact your local representative for details.

Label Guidelines  
Do not use vinyl labels.  
Print only on one side of the sheet of labels.  
Do not use any sheet where labels are missing; it may damage the printer.  
Store unused labels flat in their original packaging. Leave the sheets of labels inside the  
original packaging until ready to use. Return any unused sheets of labels to the original  
packaging and reseal it.  
Do not store labels in extremely dry or humid conditions or extremely hot or cold  
conditions. Storing them in extreme conditions may cause print-quality problems or cause  
them to jam in the printer.  
Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause labels to  
curl and jam the printer.

User Safety  
Your printer and the recommended supplies have been designed and tested to meet strict safety  
requirements. Attention to the following information ensures the continued safe operation of  
your printer.  
Electrical Safety  
Use the power cord supplied with your printer.  
Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Make sure each  
end of the cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask an  
electrician to check the outlet.  
Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not  
have a ground connection terminal.  
Do not use an extension cord or power strip.  
Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct  
voltage and power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if  
necessary.  
Warning: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly  
grounded. Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.  
Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.  
Do not place objects on the power cord.  
Do not block the ventilation openings. These openings are provided to prevent overheating  
of the printer.  
Do not drop paper clips or staples into the printer.  
Warning: Do not push objects into slots or openings on the printer. Making contact with a  
voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical shock.

If you notice unusual noises or odors:  
1. Turn off the printer immediately.  
2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.  
3. Call an authorized service representative to correct the problem.  
The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device at the back of the printer. If it is  
necessary to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord from  
the electrical outlet.  
Warning: Do not remove the covers or guards that are fastened with screws unless you are  
installing optional equipment and are specifically instructed to do so. Power should be OFF  
when performing these installations. Except for user-installable options, there are no parts that  
you can maintain or service behind these covers.  
Note: Leave the printer on for optimum performance; it does not pose a safety hazard.  
The following are hazards to your safety:  
The power cord is damaged or frayed.  
Liquid is spilled into the printer.  
The printer is exposed to water.  
If any of these conditions occur, do the following:  
1. Turn off the printer immediately.  
2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.  
3. Call an authorized service representative.  
Laser Safety  
With specific regard to lasers, this printer complies with laser product performance standards  
set by governmental, national, and international agencies and is certified as a Class 1 Laser  
Product. The printer does not emit hazardous light because the beam is totally enclosed during  
all modes of customer operation and maintenance.  
Maintenance Safety  
Do not attempt any maintenance procedure that is not specifically described in the  
documentation supplied with your printer.  
Do not use aerosol cleaners. The use of supplies that are not approved may cause poor  
performance and could create a hazardous condition.  
Do not burn any consumables or routine maintenance items. For information on Xerox  
supplies recycling programs, go to www.xerox.com/gwa.
