detected, and restarts automatically after about ten seconds using the settings made on the control  
panel.

10. Appendix  
Transmission Using IPsec  
For securer communications, this printer supports the IPsec protocol. When applied, IPsec encrypts data  
packets at the network layer using shared key encryption. The printer uses encryption key exchange to  
create a shared key for both sender and receiver. To achieve even higher security, you can also renew  
the shared key on a validity period basis.  
• IPsec is not applied to data obtained through DHCP, DNS, or WINS.  
• IPsec compatible operating systems are Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista/7, Windows Server  
2003/2003 R2/2008/2008 R2, Mac OS X 10.4.8 and later, Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS 4.0,  
and Solaris 10. However, some setting items are not supported depending on the operating  
system. Make sure the IPsec settings you specify are consistent with the operating system's IPsec  
settings.  
• If you cannot access Web Image Monitor due to IPsec configuration problems, disable IPsec under  
[Network Setting] on the control panel, and then access Web Image Monitor.  
Encryption and Authentication by IPsec  
IPsec consists of two main functions: the encryption function, which ensures the confidentiality of data,  
and the authentication function, which verifies the sender of the data and the data's integrity. This  
printer's IPsec function supports two security protocols: the ESP protocol, which enables both of the IPsec  
functions at the same time, and the AH protocol, which enables only the authentication function.  
ESP Protocol  
The ESP protocol provides secure transmission through both encryption and authentication. This  
protocol does not provide header authentication.  
• For successful encryption, both the sender and receiver must specify the same encryption  
algorithm and encryption key. The encryption algorithm and encryption key are specified  
automatically.  
• For successful authentication, the sender and receiver must specify the same authentication  
algorithm and authentication key. The authentication algorithm and authentication key are  
specified automatically.

Transmission Using IPsec  
AH Protocol  
The AH protocol provides secure transmission through authentication of packets only, including  
headers.  
• For successful authentication, the sender and receiver must specify the same authentication  
algorithm and authentication key. The authentication algorithm and authentication key are  
specified automatically.  
AH Protocol + ESP Protocol  
When combined, the ESP and AH protocols provide secure transmission through both encryption  
and authentication. These protocols provide header authentication.  
• For successful encryption, both the sender and receiver must specify the same encryption  
algorithm and encryption key. The encryption algorithm and encryption key are specified  
automatically.  
• For successful authentication, the sender and receiver must specify the same authentication  
algorithm and authentication key. The authentication algorithm and authentication key are  
specified automatically.  
• Some operating systems use the term "Compliance" in place of "Authentication".

This printer uses encryption key exchange as the key setting method. With this method, agreements such  
as the IPsec algorithm and key must be specified for both sender and receiver. Such agreements form  
what is known as an SA (Security Association). IPsec communication is possible only if the receiver's and  
sender's SA settings are identical.  
The SA settings are auto-configured on both parties' printers. However, before the IPsec SA can be  
established, the ISAKMP SA (Phase 1) settings must be auto-configured. When this is done, the IPsec SA  
(Phase 2) settings, which allow actual IPsec transmission, will be auto-configured.  
Also, for further security, the SA can be periodically auto updated by applying a validity period (time  
limit) for its settings. This printer only supports IKEv1 for encryption key exchange.  
Multiple settings can be configured in the SA.  
Settings 1-10  
You can configure ten separate sets of SA details (such as different shared keys and IPsec  
algorithms).  
IPsec policies are searched through one by one, starting at [No.1].

10. Appendix  
Cautions to Take When Using in a Network  
Using DHCP  
You can use this printer in a DHCP environment.  
• Supported DHCP servers are those which are included with Windows Server 2003/2003  
R2/2008/2008 R2.  
• DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you use DHCP relay-agent on a network via ISDN, it will  
result in increased line charges. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever  
a packet is transferred from the printer.  
• If there is more than one DHCP server, use the same setting for all servers.  
The printer operates using data from the DHCP server that responds first.  
Using AutoNet  
If the printer IPv4 address is not assigned by a DHCP server automatically, a temporary IPv4 address  
starting with 169.254, which is not used on the network, can be automatically selected by the printer.  
If an AutoNet address is set as the printer's IP address, it changes every time you turn on the printer.  
Configure the TCP/IP settings according to your network environment.  
You must change this setting to “on” to use AutoNet.  
• The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that selected by AutoNet.  
• You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page.  
• The printer cannot communicate with devices that do not have the AutoNet function. However, this  
printer can communicate with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.3 or later.

Using Adobe PageMaker Version 6.0, 6.5, or 7.0  
Using Adobe PageMaker Version 6.0, 6.5, or  
7.0  
Under Windows operating system environment with Adobe PageMaker, you need to copy PPD files to  
the PageMaker folder.  
PPD files have the ".ppd" extension in the folder  
“DRIVERS\PS\XP_VISTA\(Language)\DISK1\” on the CD-ROM.  
The third folder “(Language)” may be substituted by an appropriate language name.  
Copy the ".ppd" file to the PageMaker folder.  
• For PageMaker 6.0 default installation  
The directory is “C:\PM6\RSRC\PPD4”.  
• For PageMaker 6.5 default installation  
The directory is “C:\PM65\RSRC\USENGLISH\PPD4”.  
The “USENGLISH” may vary depending on your language selection.  
• For PageMaker 7.0 default installation  
The directory is “C:\PM7\RSRC\USENGLISH\PPD4”.  
The “USENGLISH” may vary depending on your language selection.  
• If the driver is not set correctly after copying the “.ppd” file, printing may not be performed  
properly.  
• When using PageMaker, the optional features that can be selected by the printer driver will not be  
active. The following procedure describes how to activate the optional printer features.  
1. On the [File] menu, click [Print].  
The [Print Document] dialog box appears.  
2. Make the necessary settings in the [Features] box.

10. Appendix  
When Using Windows Terminal Service/  
MetaFrame  
The following explains how to use Windows Terminal Service and MetaFrame.  
Operating Environment  
The following operating systems and MetaFrame versions are supported.  
Windows Server 2003/2003 R2  
• MetaFrame XP 1.0 FR3  
• MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0  
• Citrix Presentation Server 4.0  
Supported Printer Drivers  
When Windows Terminal Service is operating  
• PCL printer driver  
• PostScript 3  
Limitations  
The following limitations apply to the Windows Terminal Service environment.  
These limitations are built in Windows Terminal Service or MetaFrame.  
MetaFrame's [Auto-creating client printers]  
Using [Auto-creating client printers], you can select a logical printer created by copying the client's  
local printer data to the MetaFrame server. We strongly recommend testing this function in your  
network environment before using it for your work.  
• The settings for optional equipment will not be stored in the server after the equipment is  
disconnected. The settings for optional equipment will be restored to its defaults each time the  
client computer logs on to the server.  
• When printing a large number of bitmap images or using the server in a WAN environment  
over dial-up lines such as ISDN, printing may not be possible or errors may occur, depending  
on data transfer rates.  
• When using MetaFrame XP 1.0 or higher versions, we recommend making settings in [Client  
Printer bandwidth] under [Citrix Management Console] according to the environment.  
136  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
         
When Using Windows Terminal Service/MetaFrame  
• If a print error occurs on the MetaFrame XP 1.0 SP1/FR1 and the print job or a printer  
created in [Auto-creating client printers] cannot be deleted, we recommend making settings in  
[Delete unfinished print jobs] in the registry. For details, see the Readme file provided with  
MetaFrame.  
• If a print error occurs on the MetaFrame XP 1.0 FR2 and the print job or a printer created in  
[Auto-creating client printers] cannot be deleted, we recommend making settings in [Delete  
unfinished print jobs at logout] of Citrix Management Console.  
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.
