getting started guide 9Connecting to the NetworkIf your WorkCentre is a 4150s, 4150x or 4150xf, follow these instructions to connect theWorkCentre to an Ethernet TCP/IP network.If you are connecting your WorkCentre to a different type of network, or you wish to useother protocols, refer to the System Administration CD.Test the WorkCentreBefore connecting the WorkCentre to your network, make sure that it is operating correctlyas a copier.1 Place a document in the Document Feeder and make 3 copies.2 If the copies are made successfully, install the network connection as described in the nextsteps. If copying is not successful, refer to Troubleshooting on page 31.Network Connection using TCP/IPYou can set up the TCP/IP network connection using either of the following methods:• DHCP: Use this method to allow a DHCP server to automatically assign an IP address.This is the factory default setting.• Static IP address: Use this method to manually assign an IP address provided by thenetwork administrator.When the WorkCentre is powered on, it automatically uses DHCP to obtain its networkconfiguration. To use a static IP address, DHCP must be turned off and the IP address,gateway address, subnet mask, and DNS Server address must be entered manually.1 Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connectoron the WorkCentre.NOTE: The Ethernet cable is not supplied by Xerox.2 Continue on to the next step to setup the addressusing DHCP. If you want to set a static IP address,skip to Network Setup Using a Static IP Address onpage 10.Network Setup Using DHCP1 After the WorkCentre starts, it negotiates with the DHCP server for an IP address. Wait twominutes for the network setup to complete and then check the allocated IP address asfollows:• On the Control Panel, select the Access button and then enter the Administratorpasscode [1111] and select Enter.• Select Go to Tools > Connectivity and Network Setup > Network Setup > TCP/IP Options > TCP/IP Settings.• The allocated TCP/IP address is in the Name/Address field.RJ45NetworkConnector
