Guidelines for selecting and storing print media

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other print media, keep these guidelines in mind:

  • Always use print media that conform with the specifications listed on the next column.
  • Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.
  • For the best print quality, use only high quality copier grade paper specifically recommended for use in laser printers.
  • Avoid using the following print media types:

  • Paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or a texture that is too smooth or too rough

  • Erasable bond paper
  • Multi-paged paper
  • Synthetic paper and thermally reactive paper
  • Carbonless paper and Tracing paper.

  • Use of these types of paper could result in paper jams, chemical smells, and damage to your printer.

  • Store print media in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
  • Store unused print media at temperatures between 15 and 30^ (59 to 86^ ). The relative humidity should be between 10 and 70% .
  • Store unused print media in a moisture-proof wrap, such as a plastic container or bag, to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.
  • Load special print media types one sheet at a time through the manual tray to avoid paper jams.
  • To prevent print media, such as transparencies and label sheets, from sticking together, remove them as they print out.

Note

  • If you print 20 envelopes in succession, the surface of the top cover may become hot. Please exercise caution.

Guidelines for special print media

TypeGuidelines
Envelopes·Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors: ·Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m2(24 lb) or jamming may occur. ·Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 inches) curl, and should not contain air. ·Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. ·Temperature: You should use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the printer during operation. ·Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well creased folds. ·Do not use stamped envelopes. ·Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials. ·Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes. ·Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the corner of the envelope. Acceptable Unacceptable ·Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the printer's fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine's specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 11.1. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser. ·For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edges of the envelope. ·Avoid printing over the area where the envelope's seams meet.
Transparencies·To avoid damaging the printer, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers. ·Transparencies used in the printer must be able to withstand the machine's fusing temperature. Check your machine's specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 11.1. ·Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the printer. ·Do not leave them in the paper tray for long periods of time. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing. ·To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully. ·To avoid fading, do not expose printed transparencies to prolonged sunlight. ·Ensure that transparencies are not wrinkled, curled, or have any torn edges.
Labels·To avoid damaging the printer, use only labels designed for use in laser printers. ·When selecting labels, consider the following factors: - Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 180°C (356°F), the printer's fusing temperature. - Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. - Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (5 inches) of curl in any direction. - Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. ·Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to printer components. ·Do not run a sheet of labels through the printer more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the printer. ·Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.
Card stock or custom-sized materials·Do not print on print media smaller than 76 mm (3 inches) wide or 127 mm (5 inches) long. ·In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.
TypeGuidelines
Preprinted paper·Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer's fusing temperature for 0.1 second. Check your machine's specification to view the fusing temperature, see page 11.1. ·Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect printer rollers. ·Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage. ·Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.

Loading paper

Resolution

The higher the setting, the sharper the clarity of printed characters and graphics. The higher setting also may increase the time it takes to print a document.

Image Mode

The available options are Normal and Text Enhancement.

  • Printer Setting: If you select this option, this feature is determined by the setting you've made on the control panel of the printer.
  • Normal: This setting is for normal documents.
  • Text Enhancement: Image Mode allows the user to enhance printouts.

Toner Save Mode

Selecting this option extends the life of your toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page without a significant reduction in print quality.

  • Printer Setting: If you select this option, this feature is determined by the setting you've made on the control panel of the printer.
  • On: Select this option to allow the printer to use less toner on each page.
  • Off: If you don't need to save toner when printing a document, select this option.

Advanced Options

You can set advanced settings by clicking the Advanced Options button.

  • TrueType Options: This option determines what the driver tells the printer about how to image the text in your document. Select the appropriate setting according to the status of your document.
  • Download as Outline: When this option is selected, the driver will download any TrueType fonts that are used in your document not already stored (resident) on your printer. If, after printing a document, you find that the fonts did not print correctly, choose Download as bit image and resubmit your print job. The Download as bit image setting is often useful when printing Adobe.
  • Download as Bitmap: When this option is selected, the driver will download the font data as bitmap images. Documents with complicated fonts, such as Korean or Chinese, or various other fonts, will print faster in this setting.
  • Print as Graphics: When this option is selected, the driver will download any fonts as graphics. When printing documents with high graphic content and relatively few TrueType fonts, printing performance (speed) may be enhanced in this setting.
  • Print All Text To Black: When the Print All Text To Black option is checked, all text in your document prints solid black, regardless of the color it appears on the screen.

Extras Tab

You can select output options for your document. See "Printing a Document" on page 11 for more information about accessing the printer properties.

RICOH AFICIO SP 3300DN - Extras Tab - 1

Watermark

You can create a background text image to be printed on each page of your document. For details, see "Using Watermarks" on page 20.

Overlay

Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and letterhead paper. For details, see "Using Overlays" on page 21.

Output Options

  • Print Subset: You can set the sequence in which the pages print. Select the print order from the drop-down list.
  • Normal (1,2,3): Your printer prints all pages from the first page to the last page.
  • Reverse All Pages (3,2,1): Your printer prints all pages from the last page to the first page.
  • Print Odd Pages: Your printer prints only the odd numbered pages of the document.
  • Print Even Pages: Your printer prints only the even numbered pages of the document.
  • Use Printer Fonts: When Use Printer Fonts is checked, the printer uses the fonts that are stored in its memory (resident fonts) to print your document, rather than downloading the fonts used in your document. Because downloading fonts takes time, selecting this option can speed up your printing time. When using Printer fonts, the printer will try to match the fonts used in your document to those stored in its memory. If, however, you use fonts in your document that are very different from those resident in the printer, your printed output will appear very different from what it looks like on the screen.

Using Overlays

What is an Overlay?

An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer hard disk drive (HDD) as a special file format that can be printed on any document. Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms and letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you can create an overlay containing the exact same information that is currently on your letterhead. To print a letter with your company's letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the printer. You need only tell the printer to print the letterhead overlay on your document.

Creating a New Page Overlay

To use a page overlay, you must create a new page overlay containing your logo or image.

1 Create or open a document containing text or an image for use in a new page overlay. Position the items exactly as you wish them to appear when printed as an overlay.
2 To save the document as an overlay, access printer properties. See "Printing a Document" on page 11.
3 Click the Extras tab, and click Edit button in the Overlay section.
4 In the Edit Overlay window, click Create Overlay.
5 In the Create Overlay window, type a name of up to eight characters in the File name box. Select the destination path, if necessary. (The default is C:\Formover).
6 Click Save. The name appears on the Overlay List box.
7 Click OK or Yes to finish creating. The file is not printed. Instead it is stored on your computer hard disk drive.

NOTE: The overlay document size must be the same as the documents you print with the overlay. Do not create an overlay with a watermark.

Using a Page Overlay

After an overlay has been created, it is ready to be printed with your document. To print an overlay with a document:

1 Create or open the document you want to print.
2 To change the print settings from your software application, access printer properties. See "Printing a Document" on page 11.
3 Click the Extras tab.
4 Select the desired overlay from the Overlay drop-down list box.
5 If the overlay file you want does not appear in the Overlay list, click Edit button and Load Overlay, and select the overlay file. If you have stored the overlay file you want to use in an external source, you can also load the file when you access the Load Overlay window.

After you select the file, click Open. The file appears in the Overlay List box and is available for printing. Select the overlay from the Overlay List box.

6 If necessary, click Confirm Page Overlay When Printing. If this box is checked, a message window appears each time you submit a document for printing, asking you to confirm your wish to print an overlay on your document.

If this box is not checked and an overlay has been selected, the overlay automatically prints with your document.

7 Click OK or Yes until printing begins.

The selected overlay downloads with your print job and prints on your document.

NOTE: The resolution of the overlay document must be the same as that of the document you will print with the overlay.

Deleting a Page Overlay

You can delete page overlays that you no longer use.

1 In the printer properties window, click the Extras tab.
2 Click the Edit button in the Overlay section.
3 Select the overlay you want to delete from the Overlay List box.
4 Click Delete Overlay.
5 When a confirming message window appears, click Yes.

4 TCP/IP environment

A TCP/IP network provides you with various protocols for using printing devices and managing various types of networked devices.

In this chapter, you will learn which management protocols are available in TCP/IP network environments, and how to print via your network print server using TCP/IP protocol.

Management protocols

Before beginning to print documents via your network printer, you need to check or configure some parameters using management protocols.

DHCP/BOOTP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communication protocol enabling network administrators to centrally manage and to automate the assignment of IP addresses in a network. In an IP network, each device needs a unique IP address. DHCP lets a network administrator supervise and distribute IP addresses from a central point and automatically sends a new IP address when a device is plugged into a different place in the network.

Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) is UDP/IP-based protocol which allows a booting host to configure itself dynamically and without user supervision. BOOTP provides means to notify a host of its assigned IP address, the IP address of a boot server host, and other configuration information, such as the local subnet mask, the local time offset, and the addresses of default routers. Addresses of various Internet servers can also be transferred to a host using BOOTP.

DHCP is active by factory default on your network print server. After boot up, the network print server will get an IP address automatically from the DHCP server, if one exists. To set an IP address manually, see page 2.2.

Configuring DHCP/BOOTP

To enable or disable DHCP/BOOTP, use one of the following methods:

  • Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series: Select Network Settings > TCP/IP and select DHCP or BOOTP from the IP Address Assignment Method list.

HTTP

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application layer protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. It is a generic, stateless protocol which can be used for many tasks beyond its use for hypertext, such as with name servers and distributed object management systems. You are using HTTP when you connect your network printer via a web browser.

The Network Printer Card has a built-in web server, Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series. You can configure and manage your network print server through Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series using HTTP over TCP/IP.

SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite, is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. It enables network administrators to remotely monitor and configure network devices, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth.

Network devices are monitored and controlled using four basic SNMP commands:

  • read: is used by a Network Management server to monitor network devices. The server examines different variables that are maintained by the devices.
  • write: is used by a Network Management server to control managed devices. The server changes the values of variables stored within the devices.
  • trap: is used by network devices to asynchronously report events to a Network Management server. When certain types of events occur, a device sends a trap to the specified server.
  • Traversal operations: are used by a Network Management server to determine which variables a network device supports and to sequentially gather information in variable tables, such as a routing table.

Configuring SNMP

To access your network print server using SNMP, Community Name/ Access Permission pair must be properly specified. There are two access permission: read and write.

Assign the IP addresses of trap hosts and community names (IP addresses) of network devices in Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series; select Network Settings > SNMP.

Using SNMP

Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series accesses, configures, and manages network devices using SNMP. You can use other MIB (Management Information Base) browser software, which allows you to access management information gathered from network devices.

SLP

Service Location Protocol (SLP) is an Internet standard network protocol that provides a framework to allow networking applications to discover the existence, location, and configuration of networked services in enterprise networks, such as printers, Web servers, fax machines, video cameras, file systems, backup devices (tape drives), databases, directories, mail servers, and calendars.

In order to locate services on the network, users of network applications are required to supply the host name or network address of the device that supplies a desired service. However, SLP eliminates the need for a user to know the name of a network host supporting a service. Rather, the user only needs to supply the desired type of service and set of attributes or keywords, which describe the service.

Based on that description, SLP also resolves the network address of the service of the user. Administrators do not need to help clients find new services or to remove services when they are no longer available. SLP uses multicasting and can work over subnet boundaries.

Configuring SLP

You can configure SLP protocol settings through Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series. Select Network Settings > SLP.

  • SLP Protocol: You can enable or disable SLP.
  • Port Number: The port number is fixed to 427.
  • Scope 1 ~ 3: A scope is a set of services and a string used to group resources by location, network, or administrative category. Each scope should not be more than 32 characters.
  • Message Type: You can select the outgoing SLP message type sent to network devices. The default value is Multicast.
  • Multicast Radius: You can specify the maximum number of subnets that SLP multicasts can travel across. This value is also called the "hop count" or "time-to-live" (TTL). The default value is 255.
  • Registration Lifetime: You can define the time in seconds before the Server Agents registration expires.
  • Multicast Address: The Multicast Address value is fixed to 239.255.255.253, 224.0.1.127.

Using SLP

Once Enabled is checked, the network print server works as a Service Agent and the User Agent.

Dynamic DNS (DDNS)

DNS (Domain Name System) is used for registration of domain names and provides Host names to an IP address resolution service. For printer devices, DNS may be utilised for printer domain name registration, so that print server clients may refer to the printer by its host name rather than by its IP address. Even though a printer's IP address is changed, all clients can operate this printer without reconfiguration. Addressing to a printer device by IP address is not convenient and may often go stale if an IP address to a device is assigned dynamically via a DHCP server. If

the DHCP server can provide information about a printer's changing IP address to the DNS server automatically, user convenience is increased. The printer's name will be used as its DNS name.

Configuring DDNS

1 Let the DHCP server provide updated information to the DNS server.
2 Configure the same DDNS domain through Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series as entered in the DNS server.

If you connect your network printer via a web browser, you can enable this by selecting Network Settings > TCP/IP > Dynamic DNS Registration.

3 Set the IP assignment method of your network print server to DHCP and reboot the printer.

The DNS server will update its database and users can use the printer's name instead of its IP address.

WINS

Before Dynamic DNS was defined, DNS could only be updated manually when DHCP servers automatically provided (or removed) IP addresses. As a result, DNS servers often contained obsolete listings. In response, Microsoft developed Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) to solve this problem for NetBIOS names.

Microsoft now recommends moving to Dynamic DNS and away from WINS. However, many customers including Microsoft maintain WINS systems and need devices to interoperate with WINS. So devices must, at least for now, support WINS interoperability to allow for dynamic NetBIOS name to IP address registration and resolution.

WINS provides a distributed database for registering and querying dynamic NetBIOS names to IP address mapping in a routed network environment. This is the best choice for NetBIOS name resolution in such a routed network because it is designed to solve the problems that occur with name resolution in complex Internet networks.

Configuring WINS

Access Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series and select Network Settings > TCP/IP. You will configure two WINS server addresses, the Primary WINS Server or the Secondary WINS Server. The default value is 0.0.0.0.

In a DHCP server

A DHCP server can support the NBNS (NetBIOS Name Server) option. An administrator has to set the WINS server IP address in the NBNS option.

1 Set the IP assignment method of your network print server to DHCP.
2 Reboot the print server.

The WINS server will update the printer's NetBIOS name in its database. Users can use the printer name instead of its IP address.

In the network print server

1 Configure the WINS server address through Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series.
2 Reboot the print server.

The WINS server will update the printer's NetBIOS name in its database. Users can use the printer name instead of its IP address.

Bonjour

Bonjour allows for a network system to be easily discovered and its capabilities to be revealed by any Bonjour-compliant client software, such as Print Center Utility built in to Mac OS X. For details, see page 5.2.

UPnP

UPnP is an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity of intelligent appliances, wireless devices, and PCs of all form factors. It is designed to bring easy-to-use, flexible, standards-based connectivity to ad-hoc or unmanaged networks whether in the home, in a small business, public spaces, or attached to the Internet.

UPnP is a distributed, open networking architecture that leverages TCP/IP and Web technologies to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices in the home, office, and public spaces.

UPnP is more than just a simple extension of the plug and play peripheral model. It is designed to support zero-configuration, "invisible" networking, and automatic discovery for a wide breadth of device categories from a wide range of vendors. This means a device can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities, and learn about the presence and capabilities of other devices. DHCP and DNS servers are optional and are used only if available on the network, while a device can leave a network smoothly and automatically without leaving any unwanted state issues behind.

UPnP supports 6 protocol stacks for addressing, discovery, description, control, eventing, and presentation, but the Network Printer Card supports only Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP) which allows addressing, description, and discovery.

Configuring UPnP

  • Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series: Select Network Settings > UPnP.

  • Auto IP Enabled: You can enable or disable Auto IP. When this option is selected, the network print server cannot find the control point and receive an IP address from the control point. The network print server will create an IP address of "169.254.XXX.XXX."

  • Multicast DNS Enabled: SSDP can use Multicast DNS.
  • SSDP Enabled: You can enable or disable SSDP.
  • SSDP TTL: You can specify the maximum number of subnets that SSPD multicasts can travel across.

Using UPnP

If SSDP (Simple Service Discovery Protocol) is enabled, your network print server is checked by a control point. This control point is an application which supports finding UPnP devices. Information on searching and control functions or your network print server's device information is displayed in an XML page (http://xxx.xxx.xxx:5200/ printer.xml).

Printing protocols

Before setting the network printing ports, you must install the printer driver with the local port (LPT) on the system. Refer to your printer user's guide.

Standard TCP/IP port

You can print your documents to your network printer by creating a Standard TCP/IP port.

7 Follow the instructions on the screen to complete installation.

Now, you can select your printer from the Print Setup dialogue box.

LPR port

LPD, Line Printer Daemon, is the protocol associated with line-printer spooling services. Users can use the printing service from LPD running on a network print server through the LPR port. Most operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista/Windows Server 2003, support LPR port printing.

Configuring an LPR port

You can enable or disable the LPR Printing port through Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series. Select Network Settings > Raw TCP/IP, LPR, IPP. You can also change the port number of LPR/LPD. The default port number is 515.

In Windows 2000/XP/Vista/Windows Server 2003

To add an LPR port to Windows 2000/XP/Vista/Windows Server 2003, users must install a Standard TCP/IP port by default, then change the printing protocol in the printer properties. For installing the Standard TCP/IP port, see page 4.4.

Ethernet is AppleTalk used in an Ethernet network. This protocol is widely used in Macintosh network environments. Microsoft Windows system also supports this protocol. Like TCP/IP, EtherTalk also provides packet transmission and routing functionality.

The network printer card works on EtherTalk networks, if the host printer supports PostScript. The description in this chapter applies to network printing from a Macintosh computer.

EtherTalk printing

Printing in an EtherTalk network is possible with several different hardware and software configurations. When you issue a command to print a document, the application begins a series of EtherTalk calls attempting to establish a connection to the printer. The calls first initiate the NBP (Name Binding Protocol) name-lookup process to find the currently selected printer and its EtherTalk address. Then the Printer Access Protocol (PAP) is used to open a connection with the printer.

Once the connection has been established, the workstation and printer interact over a PAP connection. PAP uses lower-level protocols, such as ATP and DDP, to provide a data-stream service for sending print data to the printer.

Configuring EtherTalk

You can configure EtherTalk using the following method:

Web Image Monitor SP 3300 Series

1 Run your web browser.
2 Enter the printer's IP address in the URL field and click Go.
3 Select Network Settings > EtherTalk.

  • EtherTalk Protocol: allows you to enable or disable the EtherTalk protocol.
  • Printer Name: allows you to set the printer name for EtherTalk protocol. The default name is RNP+MAC address. This name is automatically displayed on Chooser.
  • Printer Type: shows the printer type.
  • Last Error Occurred: shows the last error.
  • RTMP (timer value for aging A-Router entity): allows you to set the time in seconds after which the routing table entry maintained by the RTMP protocol times out.

  • PAP (wait time before transmitting a tickle packet): enables you to define the time interval in seconds after which the PAP protocol should resend a tickle packet to verify the status of the PAP connection between the printer and your Macintosh.

  • ZIP (current zone): shows the AppleTalk Zone name. If there is no configured zone, * (asterisk) should be displayed.

4 Click Apply.

Configuring the printer

Note: The following instructions are for Mac OS 10.3, but similar for other versions.

The following steps must be taken to configure the network printer for use on a Macintosh system. If the network printer you want to use is not listed in the printer pop-up menu when you try to print a document, you should add it to your list of available printers.

1 Open the Applications folder > Utilities, and Print Setup Utility.
- For MAC OS 10.5, open System Preferences from the Applications folder, and click Printer & Fax.
2 Click Printing > Set Up Printers.
3 If the printer already appears in the printer list, select the In Menu check box to add it to your list of available printers. You will see the printer in the Printer pop-up menu the next time you print.
4 Click Add on the Printer List.

  • For MAC OS 10.5, press the "+" icon then a display window will pop up.

5 For MAC OS 10.3, select the Rendezvous tab.

For MAC OS 10.4, click Default Browser and find the Bonjour.
- For MAC OS 10.5, click Default and find the Bonjour.

6 If necessary, choose an AppleTalk zone from the pop-up menu that appears directly below it. Any AppleTalk printers in the zone you have chosen appear in the Printer List.
7 Select the printer in the Printer List.
8 To use printer-specific features, choose the item appropriate for your printer from the Printer Model pop-up menu, then select your printer in the Model Name list.
9 Click Add.

The printer appears in the Printer List as the default printer (in boldface). It also appears in the Printer pop-up menu when you print a document.

TCP/IP printing

Apple added TCP/IP printing to all versions including and after OS 8.6.

Note: Ensure that the Macintosh has version 8.6 or later. Earlier versions do not support TCP/IP printing as standard.

An IP printer is a network printer that uses TCP/IP protocols (such as LPD/LPR, IPP, or Socket or Jet Direct) to make itself accessible to your computer. If the IP printer you want to use is not listed when you want to print, you can add it to your list of available printers. To add an IP printer, you need to know its IP address or DNS name.

1 Open the Applications folder > Utilities, and Print Setup Utility.
- For MAC OS 10.5, open System Preferences from the Applications folder, and click Printer & Fax.
2 Click Printing > Set Up Printers.
3 If the printer already appears on the Printer List, select the In Menu check box to add it to your list of available printers. You will see the printer in the Printer pop-up menu the next time you print.
4 Click Add on the Printer List.

  • For MAC OS 10.5, press the "+" icon then a display window will pop up.

5 For MAC OS 10.3, select the IP Printing tab.

  • For MAC OS 10.4, click IP Printer.
    For MAC OS 10.5, click IP.

6 Select the appropriate printing protocol from the Printer Type pop-up menu.
7 Enter the IP address or DNS name for the printer in the Printer Address field.
8 If your printer requires it, type the queue name for your printer in the Queue Name field.
9 To use printer-specific features, choose the item appropriate for your printer from the Printer Model pop-up menu, then select your printer in the Model Name list.
10 Click Add.

The printer appears on the Printer List as the default printer (in boldface). It also appears in the Printer pop-up menu when you print a document.

Bonjour printer

Usually used in Macintosh networks to search for network devices, Bonjour consists of IPv4 Link-Local Addressing, Multicast DNS, and DNS Service Discovery. Known as zero configuration networking, Bonjour uses industry standard IP protocols to allow devices to automatically find each other without the need to enter IP addresses or configure DNS servers.

In order to provide a true zero configuration experience, meaning that you do not need to configure network parameters, the printer MUST have Bonjour enabled by default. It is NOT possible to disable any part of Bonjour.

After boot up, check the Bonjour printer name of this printer network card in Mac OS X.

1 Open the Applications folder > Utilities, and Print Setup Utility.
- For MAC OS 10.5, open System Preferences from the Applications folder, and click Printer & Fax.
2 Click Printing > Set Up Printers.
3 If the printer already appears on the Printer List, select the In Menu check box to add it to your list of available printers. You will see the printer in the Printer pop-up menu the next time you print.
4 Click Add on the Printer List.

  • For MAC OS 10.5, press the "+" icon then a display window will pop up.

5 For MAC OS 10.3, select the Rendezvous tab.

  • For MAC OS 10.4, click Default Browser and find the Bonjour.
  • For MAC OS 10.5, click Default and find the Bonjour.

Any Bonjour-enabled printers on your local network or subnetwork appear on the Printer List.

6 Select your printer from the Printer List.
7 To use printer-specific features, choose the item appropriate for your printer from the Printer Model pop-up menu, then select your printer in the Model Name list.
8 Click Add.

The printer appears on the Printer List as the default printer (in boldface). It also appears in the Printer pop-up menu when you print a document.
