Connecting the Printer
SSeelleeccttiinngg aa CCoonnnneeccttiioonn MMeetthhoodd
The printer can be connected to your computer using a USB cable or an Ethernet cable. The method
you select depends on how your computer is connected to the network. A USB connection is a direct
connection and is the easiest to set up. An Ethernet connection is used for networking. If you are
using a network connection, ensure that you understand how your computer is connected to the
network. For details, refer to About TCP/IP and IP Addresses.
Note:
• Not all options listed are supported on all printers. Some options apply only to a specific
printer model, configuration, operating system, or driver type.
• Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Routers,
network hubs, network switches, modems, Ethernet cables, and USB cables are not included
with your printer and must be purchased separately.
Network
If your computer is connected to an office network or home network, use an Ethernet cable to
connect the printer to a network port. Ethernet networks can support many computers, printers, and
devices simultaneously. In most cases, Ethernet connection is faster than USB and provides direct
access to printer settings using Xerox

network with a wireless connection. A wireless network connection provides the same access and
