Types of network connections 1
Network connection example 1
Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP 1
In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each computer directly sends and receives data to each device. There is no
central server controlling file access or printer sharing.
1) Router
2) Network printer (your machine)
In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier
to configure than the Network Shared printing method. See Network Shared printing on page 4.
Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol.
The KONICA MINOLTA machine needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration.
If you are using a router, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the KONICA
MINOLTA machine.

Network Shared printing 1
In a Network Shared environment, each computer sends data via a centrally controlled computer. This type
of computer is often called a “Server” or a “Print Server”. Its job is to control the printing of all print jobs.
1) Client computer
2) Also known as “Server” or “Print server”
3) TCP/IP, USB or parallel
4) Printer (your machine)
In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment.
The “Server” or the “Print server” must use the TCP/IP print protocol.
The KONICA MINOLTA machine needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration unless the
machine is connected via the USB or the parallel interface at the server.

Protocols 1
TCP/IP protocols and functions 1
Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain
access to network connected resources.
The print server used on this KONICA MINOLTA product supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol) protocols.
TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail. This protocol
can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows®, Windows Server®and Mac OS X. The
following TCP/IP protocols are available on this KONICA MINOLTA product.
Note
• You can configure the protocol settings by using the HTTP interface (web browser).
See How to configure the machine settings using Web Based Management (web browser) on page 16.
• For information about the security protocols, see Security protocols on page 32.
DHCP/BOOTP/RARP 1
By using the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, the IP address can be automatically configured.
Note
To use the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, please contact your network administrator.
APIPA 1
If you do not assign an IP address manually (using the control panel of the machine or the BRAdmin Light)
or automatically (using a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server), the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA)
protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255.
ARP 1
Address Resolution Protocol performs mapping of an IP address to MAC address in a TCP/IP network.
DNS client 1
The KONICA MINOLTA print server supports the Domain Name System (DNS) client function. This function
allows the print server to communicate with other devices by using its DNS name.
NetBIOS name resolution 1
Network Basic Input/Output System name resolution enables you to obtain the IP address of the other device
using its NetBIOS name during the network connection.
WINS 1
Windows Internet Name Service is an information providing service for the NetBIOS name resolution by
consolidating an IP address and a NetBIOS name that is in the local network.

Introduction

1
LPR/LPD 1
Commonly used printing protocols on a TCP/IP network.
SMTP client 1
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) client is used to send E-mails via the Internet or Intranet.
Custom Raw Port (default is Port9100) 1
Another commonly used printing protocol on a TCP/IP network. It enables interactive data transmission.
IPP 1
The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) allows you to print documents directly to any accessible
printer via the internet.
Note
For the IPPS protocol, see Security protocols on page 32.
mDNS 1
mDNS allows the KONICA MINOLTA print server to automatically configure itself to work in a Mac OS X
Simple Network Configured system. (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or greater).
Telnet 1
The KONICA MINOLTA print server supports Telnet server for command line configuration.
SNMP 1
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used to manage network devices including computers,
routers and KONICA MINOLTA network ready machines. The KONICA MINOLTA print server supports
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3.
Note
For the SNMPv3 protocol, see Security protocols on page 32.
LLMNR 1
The Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution protocol (LLMNR) resolves the names of neighboring computers,
if the network does not have a Domain Name System (DNS) server. The LLMNR Responder function works
in both the IPv4 or IPv6 environment when using a computer that has the LLMNR Sender function such as
Windows Vista®.
Web services 1
The Web Services protocol enables Windows Vista®/Windows®7 users to install the KONICA MINOLTA
printer driver by right-clicking the machine icon from the Network folder.
See Installation when using Web Services (For Windows Vista®/Windows®7 users) on page 69.

Configuring your machine for a network2
Overview 2
Before using your KONICA MINOLTA machine in a network environment, you must install the KONICA
MINOLTA software and also configure the appropriate TCP/IP network settings on the machine itself. In this
chapter, you will learn the basic steps required to print over the network using TCP/IP protocol.
We recommend that you use the KONICA MINOLTA installer on the CD/DVD-ROM to install the KONICA
MINOLTA software as this will guide you through the software and network installation. Please follow the
instructions in the supplied Quick Setup Guide.
IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways 2
To use the machine in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure its IP address and subnet
mask. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host
computers. If it is not, you must properly configure the subnet mask and the gateway address.
IP address 2
An IP address is a series of numbers that identifies each device connected to a network. An IP address
consists of four numbers separated by dots. Each number is between 0 and 255.
Example: In a small network, you would normally change the final number.
•192.168.1.1
•192.168.1.2
•192.168.1.3
How the IP address is assigned to your print server: 2
If you have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server in your network the print server will automatically obtain its IP
address from that server.
Note
On smaller networks, the DHCP server may also be the Router.
For more information on DHCP, BOOTP and RARP, see:-
Using DHCP to configure the IP address on page 63
Using BOOTP to configure the IP address on page 64
Using RARP to configure the IP address on page 65.
If you do not have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server, the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol will
automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. For more information on
APIPA, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page 65.
If the APIPA protocol is disabled, the default IP address of a KONICA MINOLTA print server is 192.0.0.192.
However, you can easily change this IP address number to match with the IP address details of your network.
For information on how to change the IP address, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask on page 10.
Configuring your machine for a network 2

Subnet mask 2
Subnet masks restrict network communication.
Example: Computer 1 can talk to Computer 2
• Computer 1
IP Address: 192.168. 1. 2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.000
• Computer 2
IP Address: 192.168. 1. 3
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.000
Where the 0 is in the Subnet mask, there is no limit to communication at this part of the address. What this
means in the above example is, we can communicate with any device that has an IP address that begins with
192.168.1.x. (where x.x. are numbers between 0 and 255).
Gateway (and router) 2
A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network and sends data transmitted via the
network to an exact destination. The router knows where to direct data that arrives at the gateway. If a
destination is located at an external network, the router transmits data to the external network. If your network
communicates with other networks, you may need to configure the Gateway IP address. If you do not know
the Gateway IP address then contact your Network Administrator.
