1. The name of the printer is printed under the item "printer name."

2. When WINS is disabled, "WINS server 1-5" is not displayed. It is

displayed when a value is set or information is acquired from the
DHCP server.

Any server which responds normally to the registration of WINS
is marked with an asterisk "

∗".

"WINS server" shows up to 5 values: 2 settings, 2 DHCP values,
and broadcast. However, the broadcast operates only when no
normal response is returned from any server.

3. The "WINS Scope ID" is displayed only when a value is set or

when information is acquired from the DHCP server and more
than one piece of information is valid as a WINS server.

It is possible to use the MFP scanning function as a network scanner
with a network scanner expansion kit. Setups can be made using a
Web browser. Supported functions vary with the type of the MFP
connected.
