Printing Via a Network
Applicable model: Plus series
If printing via a network, you need to configure your
network with the following environment.
If you configure it with an inappropriate environment, it
could cause printing to stop.
• Use LAN cables that are category 6 or higher.
• Use a switching hub and PC that support 1000BASE-T.
If the PC or device connected to the printer is not
1000BASE-T, you cannot perform printing.
After connecting, check the following.
(1) Check the printer screen display.
• On the local screen or the media detection screen, press
the [Enter] key several times to display the information
screen.
• Check that "1000 Mbps" is displayed for the LAN status
item.
(2) Check the green light of the LAN connector.
• After turning on the machine, the lamp for the LAN
connector will light up as follows.

transferring.
