Overview 1
The cx2100 can be shared on a 10/100 Mb wired or IEEE 802.11b/802.11g wireless Ethernet network using
the internal network print server. The print server supports various functions and methods of connection
depending on the operating system you are running on a network supporting TCP/IP. These functions include
printing, scanning, PC Fax send, PC Fax receive, Remote Setup and Status Monitor. The following chart
shows what network features and connections are supported by each operating system.
1BRAdmin Professional is available as a download from http://www.oceusa.com.
To use the cx2100 through a network, you need to configure the print server, and set up the computers you
use.
For Wireless Users:
To achieve optimum results with normal every day document printing, place the cx2100 as close to the
network access point (or router) as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the
two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your
documents.

Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and
applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics,
you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer, or USB for the fastest throughput
speed.
Although the Océ cx2100 can be used in a both wired and wireless network, only either one of the connection
methods can be used at a time.

Introduction

Types of network connections 1
Network connection example 1
Generally there are two types of network connections. Peer-to-Peer and Network Shared environment.
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 Switch or 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 described on the following page. See Network
Shared printing on page 6.
Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol.
The cx2100 needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration.
If you are using routers, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the cx2100.
The cx2100 can also communicate with Macintosh®. (TCP/IP compatible operating systems)

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 or USB (where available)
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 cx2100 needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration unless the machine is connected via
the USB interface at the server.
