The Network Environment
Use the diagrams below as reference to determine the type of network where
the printer is connected, and then follow the required procedure.
Windows Network Examples
If you are using Windows network, you can use TCP/IP as the protocol.
(ÆChapter 2 “TCP/IP Network Settings (Windows)”)
zAfter performing the settings for a TCP/IP network with a Windows computer,
every computer on the network can print with every printer connected directly to
the network. Also, setting up a Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows NT
computer as a server greatly improves the efficiency of managing network printers.
For more details about how to set up a server, see “Setting the Printer for Sharing”.
(ÆP. 2 - 1 5 )
zThe NetBIOS protocol cannot be used with this printer.

Macintosh Network Examples
For a Macintosh computer, the AppleTalk (EtherTalk) protocol is used.
(ÆChapter 3 “AppleTalk Network Settings (Macintosh)”).
NetWare®Network Examples
If the network is like the network environment shown in the illustration
below, you can print using NetWare®protocol. NetWare®client software
must be installed on every server computer and client computer.
(ÆChapter 4 “NetWare®Settings (Windows)”)
zYou can use TCP/IP or AppleTalk in common even in a network environment
where there is a NetWare®server. In such a case, perform the settings for the
protocol to use.

TCP/IP Network Settings
(Windows)
This chapter describes the setting methods and procedures for
connecting the printer to a TCP/IP network.

Important
Procedures Required for a TCP/IP Network
Here is a summary of the procedures required to set the printer for use on a
TCP/IP network.
zSteps 1, 2, and 3 should be performed by the network system administrator.
zAn LPD connected print application can be used to print on the TCP/IP network.
zThis printer is not compatible with RAW protocol. If you are using Windows XP or
Windows 2000, you must set and use LPR protocol.
1 Connect the network cable. ÆSetup Guide
Follow the instructions in the Setup Guide to connect the network cable.
2 Setting the Printer IP Address ÆP. 2 - 3
Setting the IP address allows setting the printer protocol to enable communication between the
printer and the computer . You can use one of the methods below to set the protocol:
• GARO Device Setup Utility (Canon software application provided with the printer)
• ARP/PING command
• Printer operation panel
3 Setting TCP/IP Protocol for the Printer ÆP. 2 - 8
This procedure sets the printer protocol settings using a Web browser on a computer connected
to the network.
• Web browser (Remote UI)
4 Setting the Computer ÆP. 2 - 1 3
This procedure is performed for each computer to be used for printing.

Setting the Printer IP Address

2-3
Important
Setting the Printer IP Address
Before setting the printer protocol, you must set the IP address to enable
communication between the printer and the computer. You can use one of the
methods below to set the IP address. Use whichever method is easiest:
• GARO Device Setup Utility (ÆP. 2 - 4 )
• ARP/PING command (ÆP. 2 - 6 )
• Printer operation panel (ÆSetup Guide, Chapter 2, “Doing the settings
on the Printer Operation Panel”)
zWhen you use the GARO Device Setup Utility to perform the settings, you must
make the settings from a computer in the same subnet as the printer.
zWhen you use the GARO Device Setup Utility to perform the printer network
settings, the subnet mask and gateway address settings are set to 0.0.0.0, so use the
Remote UI or printer operation panel to make the settings for your network.
zIf you are using an operating system that is not compatible with the GARO Device
Setup Utility, use another computer on the network, use the ARP/PING command,
or use the printer operation panel to perform the settings.
zThe GARO Device Setup Utility must be installed on your computer in order to
use this utility to make the settings. Ask your system administrator to install the
GARO Device Setup Utility on your computer. (ÆSetup Guide)
zBefore setting the IP address, confirm that the printer is switched on and connected
to the network.
zThe MAC address is required to perform the setting with the GARO Device Setup
Utility or the ARP/PING command. If you need to confirm the MAC address, use
the printer operation panel to print a Status Print.
1. Press ONLINE to display MAIN MENU.
2. Press or to select Test Print then press .
3. Press or to select Status Print then press ENTER.

Note
Setting the IP Address with GARO Device Setup Utility
If you are using Windows, use the GARO Device Setup Utility, the software
utility provided with the printer, to perform the printer network settings.
zIf you are using a Macintosh computer, use the printer operation panel to perform
the settings. (ÆSetup Guide, Chapter 2, “Doing the settings on the Printer
Operation Panel”)
1 On the desktop, click the Start button, point to Programs, then click
GARO Device Setup Utility.
2 Click the Settings button.

3 Enter the MAC address into the MAC Address box then click the Next
button.
The utility searches for the printer on the network and when the printer is
found, the protocol settings dialog box opens.
zIf the printer cannot be found, make sure that the computer and the printer are in
the same subnet. If you use the GARO Device Setup Utility to perform the settings,
you must make the settings from a computer in the same subnet as the printer.
4 For the TCP/IP Frame Type, select ETHERNET II from the list, enter
the IP address allocated for the printer into the IP Address box, then
click the Next button.
When printing via AppleTalk, select Phase2 for AppleTalk Phase. When
printing with NetWare®, select the frame type in use for Frame Type.

5 Confirm the settings then click the Finish button.
The network interface settings are changed.
zThe subnet mask and gateway address settings have been set to 0.0.0.0. After
completing the above settings, use the Remote UI or the printer operation panel to
perform the subnet mask and gateway address settings for your network. (ÆP.2- 8)
This completes preparation for selecting the printer protocol. Now you are
ready to select the printer protocol. (ÆP. 2 - 8 )
Setting the IP Address with the ARP/PING Command
The examples of entries and settings below are for the English operating
system.
1 Start at the MS-DOS prompt or command line.
2 Execute the following commands, and add the static entry to the arp
table.
arp -s <IP address> <MAC address>
where:
IP address:
Set the IP address assigned to the printer. The IP address consists of four
decimal numbers (within the range 0 to 255) separated by dots.
MAC address:
Set the MAC address of the printer. In the MAC address every two numbers
is separated by a hyphen (-).
arp -s 172.20.88.196 00-00-85-05-70-31
3 Execute the following commands to set the IP address for the printer.
ping <IP address> -l 479
Set the same address entered at Step 2.
Sample:
ping 172.20.88.196 -l 479
