Printing with SCSI Print

You can print by directly connecting
the computer to the printer via the
1394 Interface cable and using the
SCSI print client function provided
with Windows 2000.

Limitation

❒ This function is available under

Windows 2000 only. It is not avail-
able under Windows 95/98/Me or
Windows NT 4.0.

Installing the Printer Driver

• “SCSI print” must be set active

from the control panel. For
more information, see the Setup
Guide.

• For the installation of the print-

er driver, see the Setup Guide.

• If the printer driver for the con-

nected printer has already been
installed, the icon is automati-
cally added to the Printers fold-
e r . I n t h i s c a s e , d r i v e r
installation is not necessary.
However, since the 1394 Inter-
face Unit does not support bidi-
r ec ti o n a l t r a n s m i s s i o n s , i f
options are installed, set up op-
tions from the Printer Driver
Properties. See the Setup Guide.

If the 1394 Interface Unit has been
installed properly, the printer icon
automatically changes from "User
Printer Offline" to "Ready" when-
ever the 1394 interface cable is con-
nected.

Important

❒ If [Add Printer Wizard] starts on

the computer running Win-
dows 95/98/Me, click [Cancel].

❒ Do not connect new IEEE 1394

or USB devices to the printer or
turn on the printer while install-
ing the printer driver.

❒ To uninstall the printer driver,

first disconnect the 1394 inter-
face cable.

Note

❒ The 1394 Interface Unit cannot

accept print data from more
than one computer at the same
time. If a computer sends print
data while it is receiving print
data from another computer, an
error message appears.

❒ The 1394 Interface Unit does not

support bidirectional transmis-
sions.

Printing with IP over 1394

With the IPP driver of Windows Me
and by setting the IP address for the
IEEE 1394 with the printer, you can
make prints from a computer running
Windows Me.

Preparation

"IP over 1394" must be set on the
control panel and an IP address
must be specified.
For more information about how
to make printer settings, see the
Setup Guide.

Limitation

❒ With Windows Me, the provided

1394 driver can be used. With oth-
er operating systems, an RFC 2734
standard IP over 1394 driver is nec-
essary.

❒ When using the 1394 Interface Unit

in a network, the Ethernet interface
cannot be used in the same net-
work.
