Sending Data Using Ethernet
Reading the Ethernet LEDs
The Ethernet is 10/100 Base T. LEDs are located above the RJ 45 plug and
show the network status [1].
[1] Positions of the display LEDs.
MAC Address An internationally unique MAC (Media Access Control) address is required
for Ethernet operation. It consists of 6 bytes and is usually separated by
colons or hyphens (hexadecimal, e.g. 00:0a:44:02:00:49 or 00-0a-44-02-00-
49). The first 3 bytes are constant 00:0A:44 (Avery code), the last 3 bytes
vary for each device. The product manufacturer is responsible for the
allocation of the MAC addresses.
IP Address The printer uses TCP/IP protocol. An IP address is required along with the
MAC address. IP addresses are displayed as 4 bytes separated by dots
(e.g. 192.168.1.99). IP addresses are assigned by the network administrator.
¯ MAC and IP addresses originate from different protocol layers and are
generally independent of each other.
CAUTION! - If you are not qualified to send data over the network, do not
do so. The network may stop functioning.
Connecting a printer to a network requires network administrator
knowledge.
« Consult your network administrator for assistance if you do not have this
knowledge!
