5.2.6  MAC Address Setting
 Overview
This printer have a network function and stores there MAC address (Media Access 
Control Address) in the EEPROM on the Network Board. The Network Board supplied 
as an ASP does not come with the MAC address written on it, therefore, you are 
required to set the MAC address to the new Network Board after replacement. The 
following explains the procedure.
 Preparation
When replacing the Network Board, make sure to note down the MAC address written 
on a label on the Upper 
M/B Shield Plate. If the address is not readable due to 
contamination or any other cause, attach a new MAC address label (part code: 
1489231) and note down the new address. See 
"4.2.4.2 Main Board / Grounding Plate 
M/B (p126) " for description about the label position.

correctly follow the MAC address setting flowchart given on 
the right.
 The MAC Address is written correctly, The IP Address will be 
initialized also.
 The user should be notified of the change of MAC address 
because of the following reasons.
  ″ If the user has set the printer’s MAC address on a router, the 
repaired printer with a new MAC address cannot be 
connected to the network.
  ″ The default printer name on a network consists of “EPSON” 
and the last six digits of the MAC address. Therefore, the 
printer name becomes different from the previous one.
 For Artisan 835/725/PX820FWD/TX820FWD/PX720WD/
TX720WD, the MAC address label is not supplied as an ASP 
because the servicing which needs its replacement has almost 
never occurred.
You are required to enter the last six digits of the MAC address 
(xx:yy:zz) written on the MAC Address Label to the adjustment 
program. First six digits are automatically selected from two kinds 
by the adjustment program depending on the last six digits.
