About Network Setting
To connect this machine to a computer via the network, you need to configure protocol settings for this machine depending on the operating environment. This section describes connection types for the following protocol settings that are mainly used in Windows and Macintosh.
Connection examples in Windows | Connection examples in Macintosh | Description |
|---|---|---|
- | Printing is performed via the network by using the TCP/IP protocol. | |
- | If Bonjour is enabled on this machine, the Mac OS computer automatically detects the machine connected to the network on TCP/IP, and displays it as an addable printer in the list. | |
Printing is performed via the network using the LPR protocol (Line PRinter daemon protocol). | ||
- | RAW printing is performed via the network by directly specifying the RAW port (Port9100) of the machine as a destination printer. | |
- | By using the Web service function compatible with your Windows computer, you can automatically detect this machine connected to the network, and easily install it as a Web service printer. | |
IPP printing is performed via the network by using the IPP protocol. This function uses the HTTP-advanced IPP to transfer print data, so it allows you to print data on a remote printer via the network. | ||
- | SMB printing is performed by directly specifying this machine. To share this machine, use the SMB (Server Message Block) protocol. |
Tips
