Installation and Initial Settings

Ethernet Connection (Manually Set IP Address) 

1. Determine the network addresses.

    The settings listed here are only an example. The procedure and settings given in this manual do not match every environment. In an environment where the computer being used is connected to multiple network devices and the Internet, inappropriate settings will have a large effect on the entire network. For detailed information about the settings, consult your network administrator.
    Determine the IP addresses, subnet mask, and default gateway (router) to connect the computer and this machine to a network.

  1. Determine the IP addresses.
    • Computer: 192.168.0.XXX
    • Device: 192.168.0.YYY

      • "XXX" and "YYY" represent numbers from 1 to 254. Ensure that they are different from the numbers of other network equipment.

  2. Determine the subnet mask.
    • Computer: 255.255.255.0
    • Device: 255.255.255.0

      • Use the same number for the computer and this machine.

  3. Determine the default gateway (router).
    • Computer: 192.168.0.AAA
    • Device: 192.168.0.AAA

      • "AAA" represents numbers from 1 to 254. It may not be necessary to set this number, so check with your network administrator.

    2. Set the computer's network.
    This step is not necessary when connecting to an existing network environment.
