Remark
  • If you are using Windows Vista, a dialog box may be displayed while you are performing the procedure. In this case, enter a user name and password. For more information, see the manuals provided with the operating system.

  1. Check the settings for both <RX/Print Range> and <Setting/Browsing Range> in [IP Address Range Settings] on the IPv4 Settings screen, to see whether the IPv4 address of the computer in which a driver is to be installed is permitted. See step 8 in "TCP/IPv4 Settings."
  • If the settings for both <RX/Print Range> and <Setting/Browsing Range> in [IP Address Range Settings] on the IPv4 Settings screen do not permit the IPv4 address, you cannot install a driver.
  • If the IPv4 address of the computer is beyond the range of the permitted addresses set for <RX/Print Range> after installing a driver, you cannot print or send a fax from the computer.
  1. Install the driver.

Install the driver according to the following procedures indicated in the manual for each driver.

    See the procedure for standard installation in the Printer Driver Installation Guide.
  • If you want to use the fax driver
    See the procedure for standard installation in the Fax Driver Installation Guide.

When the dialog box for selecting the port appears during installation, click [Use Network Printer] → [Settings]. From the list, select [Workgroup], [Server], and [Printer] you set in "SMB and WINS Settings."
