    Supported operation environments
    The following table shows the network environments supported by the 
    machine:
    USING A WIRED NETWORK
    You must set up the network protocols on your printer to use it on your 
    network.  This chapter will show you how this is easily accomplished.
    Printing Configuration report
    You can print a Network Configuration Report from the machines control 
    panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help 
    you to set up a network and troubleshooting problems.
    To print the report, you need to press and hold Stop for about 5 
    seconds.
    Please review your machines Users Guide to learn of more details. Using 
    this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine’s MAC 
    address and IP address.
    For example:
    MAC Address     : 00:15:99:41:A2:78
    IP Address         : 192.0.0.192
    Setting IP address 
    Firstly, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and 
    managements. In most cases a new IP address will be automatically 
    assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server) located 
    on the network.
    In a few situations the IP address must be set manually.  This is called a 
    static IP and is often required in corporate Intranets for security reasons.•DHCP IP assignment:  Connect your machine to the network, and wait 
    a few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the 
    machine. Then, print the Network Configuration Report as explained 
    above. If the report shows that the IP address has changed, the 
    assignment was successful. You will see the new IP address on the 
    report.  
    •Static IP assignment: Use SetIP program to change the IP address 
    from your computer.
    In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network 
    administrator to set this address for you.
    IP setting using the SetIP program
    The following procedure is based on Windows XP. 
    This program is for manually setting the network IP address of your 
    machine using its MAC address to communicate with the machine. MAC 
    address is a hardware serial number of the network interface and can be 
    found in the Network Configuration Report.
    Installing the program
    1.Insert the Printer Software CD-ROM provided with your machine. 
    When the driver CD runs automatically, close that window.
    2.Start a web browser such as Internet Explorer and open the X drive. 
    (X represents your CD-ROM drive.)
    3.Double-click Application > SetIP.

    							24 _Getting started
    Before starting, please locate the USB cable and the Printer Software 
    Installation CD-ROM provided with your machine (;printer).
    You may need to contact a network administrator or the person who has set 
    up your wireless network for information regarding the configuration.
    Checking your network environments 
    IP address
    Every device in a network is identified by a unique numerical address 
    called an IP Address. Your machine came with a default IP address of 
    192.0.0.192, and you can verify this by printing out a Network 
    Configuration Report. In most cases a new IP address will be 
    automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration 
    Protocol Server) located on the network. In a few situations the IP 
    address must be set manually. This is called a static IP and is often 
    required in corporate Intranets for security reasons. We have provided 
    an easy to use utility program on the Printer Software CD-ROM named 
    SetIP that can change the address for you. If your machine has a control 
    panel, you may also change the IP address using the control panel. In 
    an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network 
    administrator to set this address for you.
    Wireless Networks
    • Infrastructure mode
    An Infrastructure mode network is the most common wireless 
    network configuration in a home or office consisting of a wireless 
    router, or an access point, that connects all the computers and other 
    networked devices into a common local area network (LAN).
    The access point provides a special high speed connection to a 
    Cable or DSL modem or other wide area network (WAN) device that 
    connects the LAN to the Internet or a Corporate Intranet. Most 
    Infrastructure mode networks use a DHCP Server to automatically 
    assign the IP address and set other network parameters.
    If you know that you are connecting to an Infrastructure mode 
    network with an access point, you may proceed to the Wireless 
    network setting in infrastructure mode part.
    • Ad-hoc mode
    An Ad-hoc mode network provides peer to peer communication. In 
    an Ad-hoc mode network, wireless devices and computers 
    communicate directly with each other, without using an access point. 
    They can share files and machines, but may not be able to access 
    the Internet. The machine receives print jobs from wireless 
    computers directly.
    If you know that you are connecting to an ad-hoc mode network 
    without an access point, proceed to the Wireless network setting in 
    Ad-hoc mode part.
    Installing the printer on an Ad-Hoc wireless network
    If you do not have a Access Point (AP), you may still connect the printer 
    wirelessly to your computer by setting up an Ad-Hoc wireless network by 
    following these simple directions. Locate the Printer Sotware installation 
    CD-ROM supplied with the printer.

    USING A WIRELESS NETWORK(CLP-310W, CLP-
    315W ONLY)
    You must set up the network protocols on your machine to use it on your 
    network.  This chapter will show you how this is easily accomplished. 
    Before starting, please locate the crossover network cable and the Printer 
    Software Installation CD-ROM provided with your machine (;printer). You 
    may need to contact a network administrator or the person who has set up 
    your wireless network for information regarding the configuration.
    If you are already aware of your machine’s IP address configuration and this 
    IP address is available, you may go to Configuring the machine’s 
    wireless network part directly. Otherwise you have to follow all steps from 
    Checking your Network Environments part.
    Checking your Network Environments
    IP address
    Every device in a network is identified by a unique numerical address 
    called an IP Address. Your machine came with a default IP address of 
    192.0.0.192, and you can verify this by printing out a Network 
    Configuration Report. In most cases a new IP address will be 
    automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration 
    Protocol Server) located on the network.
    In a few situations the IP address must be set manually.  This is called a 
    static IP and is often required in corporate Intranets for security reasons.  
    We have provided an easy to use utility program on the Printer Software 
    CD-ROM named SetIP that can change the address for you.
    In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network 
    administrator to set this address for you.
    Wireless Networks
    •Infrastructure mode: An Infrastructure mode network is the most 
    common wireless network configuration in a home or office 
    consisting of a wireless router, or an access point, that connects all 
    the computers and other networked devices into a common local 
    area network (LAN).
    The access point provides a special high speed connection to a 
    Cable or DSL modem or other wide area network (WAN) device that 
    connects the LAN to the Internet or a Corporate Intranet.  Most 
    Infrastructure mode networks use a DHCP Server to automatically 
    assign the IP address and set other network parameters.
    If you know that you are connecting to an Infrastructure mode 
    network with an access point, and the IP address is assigned by a 
    DHCP server, you may proceed to the Configuring the machine’s 
    wireless network part after reviewing the following parts on printing 
    a Network Configuration Report.
    If you know that you are connecting to an Infrastructure mode 
    network with an access point, but it does not have DHCP address 
    This wireless setting procedure is mainly for Macintosh users. 
    However, Windows users can also use this procedure too, but it is 
    recommended to use the easier procedure. (See Using a 
    wireless network(windows/CLP-310W, CLP-315W only) on 
    page 23.)

    assignment, or you are required to set a static IP, proceed to the 
    Setting IP address part before going to Configuring the 
    machine’s wireless network part after reviewing the following parts 
    on printing a Network Configuration Report. 
    •Ad-hoc mode : An Ad-hoc mode network provides peer to peer 
    communication. In an Ad-hoc mode network, wireless devices and 
    computers communicate directly with each other, without using an 
    access point. They can share files and machines, but may not be 
    able to access the Internet. The machine receives print jobs from 
    wireless computers directly. 
    If you know that you are connecting to an ad-hoc mode network without an 
    access point, proceed to the Setting IP address part before going to 
    Configuring the machine’s wireless network part after reviewing the 
    following parts on printing a Network Configuration Report.
    Printing Configuration report
    You can print a Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control 
    panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help 
    you to set up a network and troubleshooting problems.
    To print the report, you need to press and hold Stop for about 5 
    seconds.
    Please review your machines User’s Guide to learn of additional details. 
    Using this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine MAC 
    address and IP address.
    For example:
    MAC Address     : 00:15:99:41:A2:78
    IP Address         : 192.0.0.192
    Setting IP address
    Firstly, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and 
    managements. In most cases a new IP address will be automatically 
    assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server) located 
    on the network.
    In a few situations the IP address must be set manually.  This is called a 
    static IP and is often required in corporate Intranets for security reasons.
    •DHCP IP assignment: Connect your machine to the network, and wait a 
    few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the 
    machine. (If the access point has an available LAN port, you may 
    connect your machine directly to the access point.) Then, print the 
    Network Configuration Report as explained above. If the report shows 
    that the IP address has changed, the assignment was successful. You 
    will see the new IP address in the report. Leave the machine attached to 
    the network.
    •Static IP assignment: Use SetIP program to change the IP address 
    from your computer. If your machine has a control panel, you can also 
    change IP address using the machines control panel.
    In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network 
    administrator to set this address for you.
    IP setting using SetIP program
    The following procedure is based on Windows XP. 
    This program is for manually setting the network IP address of your 
    machine using its MAC address to communicate with the machine. A 
    MAC address is the hardware serial number of the network interface and 
    can be found in the Network Configuration Report.
    Installing the program
    1.Insert the Printer Software CD-ROM provided with your machine. 
    When the driver CD runs automatically, close that window.
