You need to set up the network protocols on the machine to use it as your network machine. You can set up the basic network settings through the machine's control panel.
The following table shows the network environments supported by the machine:

Web-based machine management solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of managing network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network machines from any site with corporate internet access. Download this program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.
This utility program allows you to select a network interface and manually configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol (See IPv4 setting using SetIP Program (Windows) or IPv4 setting using SetIP Program (Macintosh)).

TCP/IPv6 is not supported by this program. |
You must set up the network protocols on your machine to use it on your network. This chapter will show you how this is easily accomplished.
You can use network after connecting network cable to a corresponding port on your machine.
You can print a Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network and troubleshoot problems.
Press on
the control panel.
Press left/right arrow until
appears and press .Press left/right arrow until
appears.When
shows, press right/left arrow to choose .Press
.Using this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine MAC address and IP address.
For example:
: 00:15:99:41:A2:78
: 192.0.0.192
First, you have to set up an IPv4 address for network printing and management. In most cases a new IP address will be automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located on the network.
![]() |
|
If you use IPv6 address, refer to IPv6 Configuration. |
In a few situations the IP address must be set manually. This is called a static IP and is often required in corporate Intranets for security reasons.
DHCP IP assignment: Connect your machine to the network, and wait a few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the machine. Then, print the Network Configuration Report as explained above. If the report shows that the IP address has changed, the assignment was successful. You will see the new IP address in the report.
Static IP assignment: Use SetIP program to change the IP address from your computer. You can also change IP address using the machine's control panel.
In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network administrator to set this address for you.
Connect your machine to the network with a network cable.
Turn on the machine.

return to ready mode.
This program is for manually setting the network IPv4 address of your machine using its MAC address to communicate with the machine. A MAC address is the hardware serial number of the network interface and can be found in the Network Configuration Report.
