You can change the SMB setting by accessing the setting file (config.txt) in the printer
through the Windows network from the computer. However, only the administrator is
allowed to do this.
The procedure below explains how to overwrite the [config.txt] file.You will need to know the
following items that have been set: SMB Host Name, Workgroup, Administrator Name, and
Administrator Password. The procedure here explains with Windows XP as an example.
1. Open [My Network Places] from the Windows computer, followed by [Workgroup]
(default: [Workgroup]) and then the printer.
Note
• The factory default of the host name of the printer is “OKI-xxxxxx” (where xxxxxx is the last six
characters of the printer MAC address). You can confirm the name by referring to SMB Host Name on

should set the WINS server or edit LMHOSTS. For details about LMHOSTS, refer to the Windows
manual.
