Interface Settings
This section describes how to specify the interface settings from the control panel. If you are configuring the settings for the first time, use the control panel of the machine.
After configuring the settings, you can change them using software other than the control panel of the machine. For details, see "Network" or "Overview of This Function."

1.
On the Network screen, press [Confirm Network Connection Set. Changes] → specify the following.
[On]: If errors related to network connections occur, an error message is displayed on the touch panel display of the machine. If you want to use the machine in a network environment, select [On].
[Off]: Messages related to network connections are no longer displayed. If you want to use the machine without connecting to a network, select [Off].
IMPORTANT
Even if you switch the [Confirm Network Connection Set. Changes] setting from 'On' to 'Off', if the network connections are correctly set they will not be disconnected. The settings in the Network screen will not be changed.
2.
On the Network screen, press [Ethernet Driver Settings] → specify the following.
If you want the machine to automatically determine the communication mode and Ethernet type:
<Auto Detect>: [On]
If you reconnect the network cable (for example, reconnect the cable to a different Ethernet hub) with the machine's main power switch ON, the Auto Detect function will not work even if you set <Auto Detect> to [On]. Turn OFF the machine, wait at least 10 seconds, and then turn it ON. (Connect the cable with the machine's main power switch OFF.)
IMPORTANT
The machine automatically determines the Ethernet type. Press [On] unless you want to specify a particular Ethernet setting.
If you set <Auto Detect> to 'On', the machine will not enter a complete Sleep mode.
If you want to manually set the communication mode and Ethernet type for specifying a particular Ethernet type setting:
<Auto Detect>: [Off]
Select the appropriate items for <Communication Mode> and <Ethernet Type>, according to the network environment you are using.
IMPORTANT
To connect with 1000Base-T, select [Full Duplex] for <Communication Mode>.
If you select [10 Base-T] or [100 Base-TX] for <Ethernet Type>, the machine will not enter a complete Sleep mode.
