INTRODUCTION
This document describes how to set up network servers and user computers to use the EX700i
Print Server/Integrated Fiery Color Server so that users can print to it as a high-performance
networked printer. For general information about using the digital press, your computer,
software, or network, see the documentation that accompanies those products.
Setting up the network environment correctly requires the presence and active cooperation of
the network administrator. Detailed instructions for configuring networks is beyond the
scope of this document. For information, see the documentation that accompanies your
network.
For information about supported operating systems and system requirements, see Welcome.
This document covers the following topics:
• Network connectors on the EX700i Print Server/Integrated Fiery Color Server
• Information specific to the EX700i Print Server/Integrated Fiery Color Server about
setting up network servers
NOTE:For more information about network servers, see the documentation that accompanies
your network.
• System security through access levels and passwords
• Setup of the EX700i Print Server/Integrated Fiery Color Server from the digital press
touch panel
• Setup of the EX700i Print Server/Integrated Fiery Color Server from a network computer

Battery information for the European Union and EEA
This symbol indicates that the batteries and accumulators used in this product must be
disposed of separately from your household waste in accordance with EU Directive 2006/66/
EC (“Directive”) and local requirements.
If a chemical symbol is printed beneath the symbol shown, in accordance with the Directive,
this indicates that a heavy metal (Hg = Mercury, Cd = Cadmium, Pb = Lead) is present in this
battery or accumulator at a concentration above an applicable threshold specified in the
Directive.
Batteries and accumulators must not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste. Users of
batteries and accumulators must use the available collection framework for the return,
recycling and treatment of batteries and accumulators.
If your product contains non-removable batteries, the entire product is already covered by the
EU WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive and should be handed over
to an authorized collection site for WEEE. The collection site will take appropriate measures
for the recycling and treatment of the product, including the batteries.
Customer participation in the collection and recycling of batteries and accumulators is
important to minimize any potential effects of batteries and accumulators on the environment
and human health due to substances used in batteries and accumulators.
In the EU, there are separate collection and recycling schemes for batteries and accumulators.
To find out more about recycling schemes for batteries and accumulators available in your
area, please contact your local city office, waste authority, or waste disposal facility.

CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK 10
CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK
This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the EX700i.
EX700i on the network
When the EX700i is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked printer. The
EX700i supports the following network protocols (rules that enable computers on a
network to communicate with each other):
• AppleTalk, Bonjour
• TCP/IP, which also includes the DHCP, FTP, HTTP, IMAP, IPP, IPv4,
IPv6, LDAP, LPD, NBT, POP3, Port 9100, SMB, SMTP, SNMP, SNTP,
and SSL/TLS protocols
These protocols can run concurrently on the same cable. Computers that use other protocols
can print through a server that uses one of the supported protocols. The EX700i is
autosensing, and handles all connections simultaneously.
