Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6
This section describes the procedure for specifying the settings common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6 using the control panel.
Specify the settings required for your network environment. If you want to use both TCP/IPv4 communications and TCP/IPv6 communications, specify the settings required for both protocols.
After performing this procedure, follow the procedure in "Confirming TCP/IPv4 Settings (PING Command)," and "Confirming TCP/IPv6 Settings (PING Command)" to check whether the network settings are correct.

To set the password, press [Password]. Enter the password for logging in to the FTP server → press [OK]. On the Confirm screen, enter the same password to confirm the password → press [OK].
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
If you do not specify [User Name] and [Password], all user names and passwords will be valid.
The password will appear in the job list as a user name if you enter "anonymous" as a login user name for access to an FTP server without specifying [User Name] and [Password], or if you enter "anonymous" in [User Name]. (To display the job list, press

|
IMPORTANT
|
|
In order to select [On] for <Use SSL> to allow SSL communication, a key pair is necessary. You can use the preinstalled key pair, or generate an original key pair with the machine, to set as the default key. For information on the default key, and instructions on how to generate an original key pair, see "Generating a Key Pair and Server Certificate," or "Registering a Key Pair File and Server Certificate File Installed from a Computer."

10.
Press [Multicast Discovery Settings] for [TCP/IP Settings] → specify the following items → press [OK].
Press [On] for <Response> to use device information from other machines, such as an Address Book or Department ID Management settings, or respond to a multicast discovery from utilities.
Set the scope name, as necessary. Press [Scope Name] → enter the scope name to use for multicast discovery → press [OK].
|
NOTE

13.
Press [Up].
14.
Press [Firewall Settings] for [Network] → press [MAC Address Filter].
15.
Specify the following settings → press [OK].
By specifying the settings described below, you can filter received packets and transmitted packets using MAC (Media Access Control) addresses and improve security when sending and receiving data. The possibility of a third person gaining unauthorized access can be reduced by configuring the settings for [MAC Address Filter] in accordance with the environment you are using.
If you want to deny data transmission/reception between a device with a specified MAC address and the machine, set the default policy for the transmission or reception filter so as to allow transmission/reception, and enter the MAC address to be denied. Data transmission/reception between the device having the specified MAC address and the machine will be disabled. If you want to enable data transmission/reception only with a device having a specified MAC address, set the default policy for the transmission or reception filter so as to deny transmission/reception, and enter the MAC address to be allowed. Data transmission/reception will be enabled only between the device having the specified MAC address and the machine.
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
Up to 100 MAC addresses can be specified.
|
If you want to deny transmission/reception of data with the device having the specified MAC address:
If you want to deny transmission/reception of data with the device having the specified MAC address:
Press [TX Filter] or [RX Filter] for [MAC Address Filter] → set <Use Filter> to 'On' → press [Allow] for <Default Policy>.
Press [Register].
Enter the MAC address for which data transmission/reception is to be denied → press [OK].
If you want to allow transmission/reception of data only with the device having the specified MAC address:
Press [TX Filter] or [RX Filter] for [MAC Address Filter] → set <Use Filter> to 'On' → press [Reject] for <Default Policy>.
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
If you set <Default Policy> to [Reject], data transmission/reception is only possible with the device having the MAC address specified in this procedure. Be sure to confirm the MAC address when configuring the settings. If a corresponding MAC address does not exist, data transmission/reception will not be possible.
|
Press [Register].
Enter the MAC address for which data transmission/reception is to be allowed → press [OK].
If you do not want to restrict data transmission/reception:
Press [TX Filter] or [RX Filter] for [MAC Address Filter] → set <Use Filter> to 'Off'.
16.
Press [Up] → [Up] → [TCP/IP Settings].
17.
Press [Confirm Dept. ID PIN] for [TCP/IP Settings] → specify the required settings → press [OK].
Press [On] to confirm the Department ID and password when printing using a driver that supports Windows Vista/7. [Use HTTP] is automatically set to 'On' if you select [On].
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
A key pair to use for encrypted SSL communication is required to confirm Department IDs and passwords. Even if you set <Confirm Dept. ID PIN> to 'On', Department IDs and passwords cannot be confirmed if the key pair is corrupted or invalid. In this case, erase the key pair and see "Generating a Key Pair and Server Certificate," or "Registering a Key Pair File and Server Certificate File Installed from a Computer" to register a new key pair.
If there is no key pair, you cannot set <Confirm Dept. ID PIN> to 'On'. You can use the preinstalled key pair, or generate an original key pair with the machine, to set as the default key. For information on the default key, and instructions on how to generate an original key pair, see "Generating a Key Pair and Server Certificate," or "Registering a Key Pair File and Server Certificate File Installed from a Computer."
