Network Scanner Tool User’s Guide

Use Host Name

If your network operates under the Full or Exception DHCP policy described in Chapter 2, we
recommend ‘Use Host Name’ to identify the copier. Host Names for the copiers are available
from your Network Administrator.

Once you enter the Host Name, the Network Scanner Tool will then automatically fill in the
correct IP address.

Advanced

The Advanced button allows you to specify how your PC network address is to be resolved.
Click on Advanced to bring up the PC Settings screen:

If your network operates under Simple Addressing or Exception DHCP policies described in
Chapter 2, we recommend ‘Use IP Address’ to identify your computer. IP addresses are
available from your Network Administrator.

If your network operates under Regular DHCP or Full DHCP policies described in Chapter 2,
we recommend ‘Use Host Name’ to identify your computer. Host Names are available from
your Network Administrator.

The following table summarizes the recommended choices depending on the policy in force
on your network.

[Note: Sometimes, after the setup wizard runs, the addressing methods selected will not match
this table. This is generally not a problem, but if you have trouble using the ‘Scan to Desktop’
profiles, set up the addresses manually to correct the problem.]

Clicking on the Properties button brings up the same Properties for Copier screen as the New
button. The contents of this screen match the specific copier selected when the Properties button is
clicked. Each option in the Properties for Copier screen can be examined and/or changed just as it
was using the New button.
