Asiga MAX User Guide

Build jobs for the MAX are prepared on a personal computer and sent to the MAX via a

network connection. The MAX has two networking options:

1. Ethernet 10/100 port on the rear of the machine

2. Wireless

3. Wireless Direct

Ethernet Setup

Plug one end of the included network cable (RJ45 connector at both ends) into the Ethernet

port at the rear of your MAX machine. Plug the other end into a hub/switch/router on the

same network as your computer. Alternatively, if there is no network, you can plug it directly

into your computer.

The default network setting is Automatic Configuration, which allows your network to

automatically assign an IP address to the MAX machine if there is a DHCP server present.

If there is no DHCP server present, the MAX will fall back to Automatic Private IP

Addressing to assign an unused address in range 169.254.1.0-169.254.254.255 with a

subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.

If you wish to assign a fixed IP address to the MAX machine for Ethernet:

1. Go to Settings > Wired Network

2. Toggle off Automatic Configuration

3. Select IP Address, enter the IP address and select Save

4. Select Subnet Mask, enter the subnet mask and select Save

5. Setting the Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS is optional and may be left

blank

Wireless Setup

1. Go to Settings > Wireless Network

2. Select Network Name

3. Select the desired wireless network from the list. Wireless networks that require a

password will have a lock icon shown.

4. If required, enter the password and select Connect. The password will be

remembered so that the printer can reconnect again if the wireless connection is

interrupted, the printer is restarted or the printer is turned off and on.

5. A spinning circle animation will be shown while the printer is connecting to the

network. If the printer has connected successfully, a tick icon will be shown.

If your wireless network does not have a DHCP server present, you may need to assign a

fixed IP address as detailed in the Ethernet Setup section.

Wireless Direct Setup

Wireless Direct allows the printer to act as a wireless access point for connecting to the

printer wirelessly. This may be useful if you do not have a wireless access pointer or router

that the printer can connect to. Note that enabling Wireless Direct will prevent connecting to

an existing wireless network using Wireless Setup.

1. Go to Settings > Wireless Direct

2. Toggle on Enabled
