Setting the Address Manually
You may also manually change the printer’s IP address, subnet mask, and 
gateway by using the following instructions. (See Chapter 3 “Understanding 
the Ethernet Configuration Menus” for more information.) 
When manually setting the IP address, turn off DHCP, BOOTP and 
ARP/PING first. In addition, when the IP address is changed, add a 
new port or reinstall the printer driver.
CAUTION
You should always notify your network’s administrator before changing 
the printer’s IP address.
1Turn on your PC and printer.

Network Printing
Network printing terms are described below.
„Bonjour
„BOOTP
„DHCP
„HTTP
„IPP
„LPD/LPR
„SNMP
„Port9100
This chapter contains descriptions on the network printing terms and the IPP 
printing methods.
Bonjour
Macintosh network technology for automatically detecting devices connected 
to the network and for specifying settings. Previously called “Rendezvous”, 
the name was changed to “Bonjour” starting with Mac OS X v10.4.
BOOTP
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) is an Internet protocol that enables a diskless 
workstation to discover (1) its own IP address, (2) the IP address of a BOOTP 
server on the network, and (3) a file that can be loaded into memory to boot 
the workstation. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard 
or floppy disk drive. 
DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning 
dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a 
device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. 
In some systems, the devices IP address can even change while it is still 
connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. 
Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software 
keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage 
the task. This means that a new computer can be added to a network without 
the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.

HTTP
HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is the underlying protocol used by the 
World Wide Web. It defines how messages are formatted and transmitted, 
and what actions web servers and browsers should take in response to vari-
ous commands. For example, when you enter a URL in your browser, this 
actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to fetch and 
transmit the requested web page. 
IPP
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a protocol for end users’ most common 
printing situations over the Internet. It allows users to find out about a printer’s 
capabilities, submit print jobs to a printer, determine the status of the printer 
or print job, and cancel a previously submitted print job.
For more information on using IPP, See “Printing via IPP (Internet Printing 
Protocol)” on page 4-11.
LPD/LPR
LPD/LPR (Line Printer Daemon/Line Printer Request) is a platform-
independent printing protocol that runs over TCP/IP. Originally implemented 
for BSD UNIX, its use has spread into the desktop world and is now an 
industry standard. 
SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is actually a set of protocols 
for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages to differ-
ent parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data 
about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this 
data to the SNMP requesters.
Port 9100
When printing through a network, TCP/IP port number 9100 can be used to 
send raw data.

You must have administrator privileges in order to install the printer 
driver. 
If the User Account Control window appears when installing on Win-
dows 7/Vista/Server 2008, click the Allow button or the Continue but-
ton. 
For IPP printing, specify the network setting. Refer to “Making the 
Connection” on page 4-3 and “IPP” on page 4-10.

If your system cannot connect to the printer, the following message appears:
„Windows Server 2003/XP—“Windows cannot connect to the printer. 
Either the printer name was typed incorrectly, or the specified printer 
has lost its connection to the server. For more information, click Help.”
„Windows 2000—“Could not connect to the printer. You either entered 
a printer name that was incorrect or the specified printer is no longer 
connected to the server. Click Help for more information.”
3Windows Server 2003/XP—Go to step 4.
Windows 2000—If you entered a valid path in the previous step, the fol-
lowing message displays: “The server on which the KONICA MINOLTA 
magicolor 3730 printer resides does not have the correct printer driver 
installed. If you want to install the driver on your local computer, click OK.” 
The reason for this is that you do not yet have a printer driver installed.
