Introduction

About Your Printer

Your printer has a built-in Ethernet interface and can connect anywhere on

your network using 10Base-T or 100Base-TX. The built-in Ethernet interface

automatically selects the correct link speed and network protocols when it

connects to the network.

The network interface supports multiple protocols and automatically detects

the protocols being used on your network. You can print from Microsoft®

Windows®and Mac OS®X applications.

If you want to configure the network interface to use TCP/IP and SNMP

network protocols, use EpsonNet Config. The configuration utility is provided

with your printer, and allows you to quickly and easily configure the network

interface.

Note:

The EpsonNet Config utility configures the network interface to work only with

protocols that exist on your network. This does not imply that you can use all of the

above-mentioned protocols on your network or operating system. The protocols that

the network interface can use may vary depending on the operating system and the

network configuration.

About This Guide

This Network Guide contains information about using the network interface on

a network. It includes how to set up the network interface, install the

configuration software, and configure your printer and computer network

settings.

For information about your printer, see your User’s Guide.

8Introduction

Note:

❏This guide is written for network administrators, and many of the steps included

in this guide require detailed network knowledge and administrator rights.

❏The term “network administrator” in this guide refers to the person responsible for

maintaining the network. “Administrator” is synonymous with “Supervisor.”

❏The term “network interface” refers to the built-in Ethernet interface of the printer

in this guide.

❏Some screen shots in this guide may list a printer name other than your printer.

This does not alter the instructions.

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

wWarnings

must be followed carefully to avoid bodily injury.

cCautions

must be observed to avoid damage to your equipment.

Notes

contain important information and useful tips on the operation of your printer.

Operating Environment

The network interface supports the following environments.

OS Protocol

Windows 7

Windows Vista®

Windows XP (Home, Professional)

TCP/IP (using LPR, Standard TCP/IP Port)

Mac OS X 10.6

Mac OS X 10.5

Bonjour and TCP/IP

Introduction 9

Features of the Network Interface

❏Connects your Epson printer using a built-in Ethernet interface, which is

called the network interface in this manual, to the network.

❏Supports multiple protocols, such as TCP/IP and Bonjour.

❏Supports both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.

❏Supports DHCP.

❏Supports Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) that assigns an IP

address automatically to the network interface even if there is no DHCP

server on the network.

❏Supports the Dynamic DNS function.

❏Supports SNMP.

❏Supports SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol).

❏Supports Bonjour on Mac OS X 10.5.x or later.

10 Introduction

Network Interface Operation

Status lights

The status lights provide you with important information on the operation of

the network interface.

The light on the left indicates whether the network interface is connected to a

10Base-T (green) or 100Base-TX (orange) network.

The light on the right flashes when data is being transmitted or received.

If the light on the left is solid green and the light on the right is off, the printer

is not connected to the network.

Network connector

The RJ-45 connector is used to connect an Ethernet cable to a network. You

can use an Ethernet cable for both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.

cCaution:

You must use a Category-5 or higher shielded twisted-pair cable to connect the

network interface to a network.

About the Software

The software CD provided with your printer includes the following network

software.

❏EpsonNet Config for Windows is a Windows-based configuration utility

that allows you to configure the network interface. See “EpsonNet Config

for Windows” on page 27.

❏EpsonNet Config for Macintosh is a Macintosh-based configuration utility

that allows you to configure the network interface. See “EpsonNet Config

for Macintosh” on page 28.

❏EpsonNet Config with Web Browser is a web-based configuration utility

that allows you to configure the network interface. See “EpsonNet Config

with Web Browser” on page 28.

Terms and Concepts

Configuration -- a prepared set of conditions for proper operation of a device.

Configuring the network interface is to prepare it to work with protocols

available on a network.

DHCP -- a dynamic host configuration protocol. It is a protocol that assigns

dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network.

Protocol -- a rule that controls how data or information is exchanged through

a network. Computers and software cannot communicate with each other

using different protocols.

TCP/IP -- Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, a layer of protocols

that provides communication between nodes on a network.
