Introduction
The network interface card in the DP series works only with the TCP/IP protocol (the
same protocol used by the Internet). This protocol must be loaded on your desktop
PC and/or Server for network printing to work.
If you are not currently running this protocol it can be added to your system from
your Windows CD, please consult your Windows documentation for further
information.
The DP series also requires a static TCP/IP address. If your Server is using DHCP
you will need to give an address outside the DHCP scope or if it is within the scope a
reservation must be added. Please consult your Network Administrator if you are
unsure if your network uses DHCP or not.
The network interface card in the DP series has a RJ45 connection only. If you have
any other type of connector please refer to your network administrator for
assistance.
The network interface card also auto-detects your network speed, either 10 or 100
megabits per second.

Windows 95/98/Me
Peer to Peer Printing
You can print to your DP series unit from the above operating systems without the
need of a Server. You can also use this method of printing even if you have a Server
but would prefer to print directly to your DP unit.
Stage 1
What you will need
Your DP unit will need an TCP/IP address e.g. 192.168.10.1, a sub-net mask e.g.
255.255.255.0 and a gateway address e.g. 192.168.10.100. Your network
administrator may need to give you these addresses.
Once you have these addresses you will need to input these into the DP unit. Follow
these instructions to input these settings.
1.
2.
With the unit turned on press the “function” key located on the dashboard at
the top towards the right.
Use the arrow button (DP2500) or the toggle button (DP2000) to select page
2 of the menu.
3.
4.
Scroll down to “Key operator code”
Input “000” then either OK or SET (if this code is incorrect consult your
Dealer)
5.
6.
Scroll down until you see “TCP/IP Address”
Input the information as requested. Remember to use the full three digit
number for the address e.g. if the address for one segment is “10” input
“010”. If you make a mistake, use the “clear” button to erase your entry.
Repeat the above for the Sub-Net Mask and Gateway.
After you have entered the address remember to press the “set/OK” button to
register your entry.
After entering all of the information press the “reset” button to get back to
the main menu then switch the unit off and then back on for the changes to
take effect.
7.
8.
9.
You can check to see if your settings have been accepted by going back into
the menu’s previously mentioned.
10. In case of difficulty your Dealer can test the unit using an engineering mode,
please ask them for assistance.

Operating Instructions
30.
For comprehensive operating instructions, please refer to the manual, which
can be found on the CD that came with your unit.
Problems?
No Network Connection
1. Check the obvious things; is the unit switched on and “on-line” (the on-line light
should be on, if it isn’t press the “Printer” key on the left side of the copier
dashboard and then press “on-line”. The copier should bleep to confirm.
2. Check the cable connections and if possible use a known good cable and
network port.
3. Have you programmed the IP address of the copier, Sub-Net and Gateway
correctly? Please refer to the start of the installation procedure to double-check
this.
4. Even if you don’t have a Gateway, an address must be inputted. Choose a spare
IP address for the Gateway if required.
5. Have you properly configured the LPR port on your PC? Again, refer to the start
of this guide to check this.
6. Where you plug the network cable into the back of the copier, do you have a
green “link light” showing. If not try an alternative network port. If you do not
get a green link light, please contact your Dealer for further assistance.

7. If you do have a green “link light”, try to “ping” the network card in the copier
by typing the following from a DOS prompt on your PC:
Ping 192.168.10.1
(Please substitute the IP address with the correct address you are using)
8. If you get a “reply” then you have a network connection. Double check numbers
1 through 5 and if necessary, re-install the LPR software and print driver.
9. If you do not get a “reply” contact your Dealer for further assistance.
Print Driver Issues
1. If the copier “bleeps” and doesn’t print anything, check the defaults of the
printer driver especially the default paper size. Make sure this is set to A4.
2. Have you got “security print” enabled? Again, double-check the defaults and
make sure the driver is configured correctly.
3. If your unit picks paper from a different tray than selected, check within your
application software for the correct page defaults and these will usually override
the printer driver settings.
4. The latest printer drivers can be downloaded from the following Web Site.

2. Locate the icon for your server and then double click on it.
3. You should be able to see a printer icon for the DP copier.
4. Double click on the icon, Windows will then ask you if you wish to use this
resource and prompt you to install the relevant files.
5. Click on “Yes” and your Server will download the appropriate files to your PC.
6. Once you have done this open your Printers folder and you should see an icon
for the DP unit.
7. Do a right hand mouse click and choose “Properties”. Go to the tab “Device
Options”. Here you need to input what accessories etc you have on your unit.
Make sure the paper size is set to A4. For NT4 and 2000 users see the note
below regarding document defaults.
8. When you have finished click “Apply” then “OK”.

9. Repeat the right hand mouse click over the printer icon and go to “Document
defaults” and make sure the paper size is set to A4 then click “OK”. Also check
the Port settings of your computer to make sure that “enable byte counting” is
switched on..
Operating Instructions
10.For comprehensive operating instructions, please refer to the manual, which can
be found on the CD that came with your unit.
Problems?
No Network Connection
1. Check the obvious things; is the unit switched on and “on-line” (the on-line light
should be on, if it isn’t press the “Printer” key on the left side of the copier
dashboard and then press “on-line”. The copier should bleep to confirm.
2. Check the cable connections and if possible use a known good cable and
network port.
3. Have you programmed the IP address of the copier, Sub-Net and Gateway
correctly? Please refer to the start of the installation procedure to double-check
this.
4. Even if you don’t have a Gateway, an address must be inputted. Choose a spare
IP address for the Gateway if required.
5. Have you properly configured the LPR port on your PC? Again, refer to the start
of this guide to check this.
6. Where you plug the network cable into the back of the copier, do you have a
green “link light” showing. If not try an alternative network port. If you do not
get a green link light, please contact your Dealer for further assistance.
7. If you do have a green “link light”, try to “ping” the network card in the copier
by typing the following from a DOS prompt on your PC:
Ping 192.168.10.1
(Please substitute the IP address with the correct address you are using)
8. If you get a “reply” then you have a network connection. Double check numbers
1 through 5 and if necessary, re-install the LPR software and print driver.
9. If you do not get a “reply” contact your Dealer for further assistance.

Print Driver Issues
10.If the copier “bleep’s” and doesn’t print anything, check the defaults of the
printer driver especially the default paper size. Make sure this is set to A4.
11.Have you got “security print” enabled? Again, double-check the defaults and
make sure the driver is configured correctly.
12.If your unit picks paper from a different tray than selected, check within your
application software for the correct page defaults and these will usually override
the printer driver settings.
13.The latest printer drivers can be downloaded from the following Web Site.
14. If your unit prints part pages, check to make sure that “enable byte counting” is
switched on – this only applies to Windows 2000.

TOKEN PASSING:
This is a method of controlling access to a network using a special data
packet called a TOKEN from node to node. When all the stations are idle,
the TOKEN is labelled as 'free'. A station wishing to transmit data waits for
a 'free' TOKEN, then changes the token to 'busy' and transmits a data
packet immediately behind it. When the station for which the information
was for has removed it from the network, the TOKEN is then released.
With TOKEN PASSING, workstations or applications can be assigned
priorities, either giving them preferential claim on a circulating TOKEN, or
defining the amount of data they can transmit when they receive a
TOKEN. (See Token Ring)
