have been set.

Ethernet Interface
An RJ45 connector can be used as the Ethernet interface for this printer.
When connecting your printer to an Ethernet network, the tasks you perform
depend on how you plan to set the printer’s IP (Internet Protocol) address.
Printers are shipped with a preset IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.
IP Address—A unique identifier for each device on a TCP/IP network.
Subnet Mask—A filter used to determine what subnet an IP address
belongs to.
Gateway—A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another
network.
Since the IP address for each PC and printer on your network must be
unique, you usually need to modify this preset address so it doesn’t conflict
with any other IP address or your network or any attached network. You can
do this in one of two ways. Each is explained in detail in the following sec-
tions.
Using DHCP
Setting the address manually
Using DHCP
If your network supports DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the
printer’s IP address will be automatically assigned by the DHCP server when
you turn on the printer. (Refer to “Network Printing” on page 104 for a descrip-
tion of DHCP.)

Network Printing
The magicolor 2550 supports the following network protocols:
BOOTP
DHCP
HTTP
IPP
IPX/SPX
LPD/LPR
NetBEUI
SLP
SNMP
Port9100
SMB
SMTP
This chapter defines each of these protocols and then explains how to print
via IPP.
BOOTP
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) is an Internet protocol that enables a diskless
workstation to discover (1) its own IP address, (2) the IP address of a BOOTP
server on the network, and (3) a file that can be loaded into memory to boot
the workstation. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard
or floppy disk drive.
DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning
dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a
device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.
In some systems, the device’s IP address can even change while it is still
connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses.
Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software
keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage
the task. This means that a new computer can be added to a network without
the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.
HTTP
HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is the underlying protocol used by the
World Wide Web. It defines how messages are formatted and transmitted,
and what actions web servers and browsers should take in response to vari-
ous commands. For example, when you enter a URL in your browser, this
actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to fetch and
transmit the requested web page.
IPP
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a protocol for end users’ most common
printing situations over the Internet. It allows users to find out about a printer’s
capabilities, submit print jobs to a printer, determine the status of the printer
or print job, and cancel a previously submitted print job.
For more information on using IPP, See “Printing via IPP (Internet Printing
Protocol) – Windows Server 2003/XP/2000” on page 108.
IPX/SPX
IPX/SPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange) is a
networking protocol developed by Novell. It was used mainly in Netware envi-
ronments as the general LAN protocol, where TCP/IP has become wide-
spread.
LPD/LPR
LPD/LPR (Line Printer Daemon/Line Printer Request) is a platform-
independent printing protocol that runs over TCP/IP. Originally implemented
for BSD UNIX, its use has spread into the desktop world and is now an
industry standard.
NetBEUI
NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) is a networking protocol devel-
oped by IBM. It allows small-scale networks to easily be constructed simply
by specifying the computer name.
SLP
Traditionally, in order to locate services on the network, users had to supply
the host name or network address of the machine providing the desired ser-
vice. This has created many administrative problems.
However, SLP (Service Location Protocol) simplifies the discovery and use of
network resources such as printers by automating a number of network ser-
vices. It provides a framework that allows networking applications to discover
the existence, location, and configuration of networked services.
With SLP users no longer need to know the names of network hosts. Instead,
they need to know only the description of the service they are interested in.
Based on this description, SLP is able to return the URL of the desired
service.
SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is actually a set of protocols
for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages to differ-
ent parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data
about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this
data to the SNMP requesters.
Port 9100
When printing through a network, TCP/IP port number 9100 can be used to
send raw data.
SMB
SMB (Server Message Block) is a protocol for sharing resources on the net-
work, such as files and printers, in a Windows environment.
If the Samba server software is used on Linux or UNIX, services using SMB
can be shared.
SMTP
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is a protocol for sending e-mail.
This protocol was originally used to send e-mail between servers; however,
currently client e-mail software use it to also send e-mail to servers using
POP.
