Configuration capabilities

With the release of Mac OS

®

 X 10.2, Apple

®

 introduced Simple Network Configuration capabilities.

The Simple Network Configuration capabilities of Mac OS

®

 X lets you create an instant network of computers 

and smart devices by connecting them to each other. The smart devices automatically configure themselves 
to be compatible with your network. Before using the Simple Network Configuration capabilities, you must 
install the printer driver. For installing the printer driver, see the Quick Setup Guide we provided with the 
printer.
You do not need to manually configure any IP address or network strings within the printer as the printer will 
automatically configure itself.
