IB-2x Hardware Installation
The IB-2x is a slide-in interface board which does not require the removal of the printer’s main board
for installation. These instructions describe the installation into the FS-800 but are similar for any
Kyocera/ Kyocera Mita printer with the slide-in interface.
1. Remove the two screws securing the interface 2. Align the edges of the IB-2x board with the rails in the
slot cover on the rear panel (shown) or side
interface slot and slide the IB-2x into the printer. Secure
panel (not shown) of the printer and discard the with the two screws removed in Step 1.
interface slot cover.
Using the Quick Setup Wizard
While the wizard is easy to use, this section provides some additional information on locating and
connecting to the printer. Insert the CD-ROM and select Quick Setup Wizard in the Configuration
section.
The printer selection screen will be displayed (see Fig 1). Quick Setup will discover printers over either
IPX or IP as long as the protocol is installed on the Windows machine running Quick Setup, e.g., if only
IPX is installed, then Quick Setup will find and display only IPX printers.
If a printer is not displayed on the list, an alternate method for connecting is to enter its Ethernet
address in the space provided. The Ethernet address may be found on the IB-2x status page. If an IP
printer is not on the local segment, then it must also have a correctly configured Default Gateway
address, and the network router(s) must be configured to forward IP broadcasts.
If a printer cannot be found by Quick Setup, (e.g. IPX is not in use and IP broadcasts are not forwarded), then use a web browser or AdminManager for setup. In a web browser, IP broadcasts are not
necessary since the IP address is entered directly. In AdminManager, specific networks may be
defined for searching. See the Security and Followup Management section for more information on
connecting with a web browser or AdminManager.

Fig. 1 Quick Setup Printer Selection
NetWare Printing
There are a number of printing options in NetWare. The following gives an explanation of the various
printing methods for each NetWare version and describes how to set up printing for each method.
NetWare 3.x
NetWare 3.x supports only Bindery based printing. Two modes are supported; 1) Print Server mode
and 2) Remote Printer mode.
Print Server mode (recommended): The IB-2x acts as the Print Server and polls the print queue
looking for jobs to service. This mode uses a NetWare logon slot (i.e. 1 user license).
Remote Printer mode: The IB-2x acts as a Remote Printer accepting jobs from a Print Server running
on a dedicated workstation or on the file server. This mode does not require a NetWare user license.
NetWare 3.x Bindery
1. Run the Quick Setup wizard on the IB-2x CD-ROM.
2. In the NetWare section choose Bindery Setup. All required NetWare objects are created by the
Quick Setup wizard.
3. After running the wizard, wait a couple minutes then use the printer front panel to print the status
pages. Check the IB-2x status page for the NetWare connection information and verify that the
queue status is Ready.
4. Setup the Windows clients to print to the associated NetWare queue (see the Windows Printing
via NetWare section).
4
NetWare 4.x and 5.x
NetWare 4.x and 5.x support NetWare Directory Services (NDS) printing. For backwards compatibility,
Bindery based printing is also supported. Print Server mode and Remote Printer mode (see descriptions in the previous section) are supported for NDS, however, only Print Server mode is supported for
Bindery printing.
NetWare 4.x and 5.x NDS or Bindery
1. Run the Quick Setup wizard on the IB-2x CD-ROM.
2. In the NetWare section choose NDS Setup (recommended) or Bindery Setup. All required
NetWare objects are created by the Quick Setup wizard.
3. After running the wizard, wait a couple minutes then use the printer front panel to print the status
pages. Check the IB-2x status page for the NetWare connection information and verify that the
queue status is Ready.
4. Setup the Windows clients to print to the associated NetWare queue (see the Windows Printing
via NetWare section).
Windows Printing
Windows encompasses a wide range of client versions; from Windows 3.1 to Windows 2000, and thus
a wide range of printing capabilities. The various versions of Windows in combination with the IB-2x
offer the network printing capabilities described below.
> Via Novell NetWare: Printing to NetWare print queues when a NetWare server is present.
> Via LPR: Printing to a Windows LPR spooler over TCP/IP.
> Via IPP: Printing over the Internet or intranet using the Internet Printing Protocol.
> Via NetBEUI: Peer to Peer printing using the NetBEUI protocol. Printers are available in Network
Neighborhood.
> Via Windows Printer Sharing: Printing to a shared network printer which is configured on
another Windows machine.
5
Which Print Method to Use?
The optimum Windows printing configuration depends upon your particular environment including user
and administrator experience and preferences. Generally, NetWare Print Services will be utilized when
a NetWare server is present. In the absence of a NetWare server, LPR printing in combination with
printer sharing is often utilized when TCP/IP is already in use. NetBEUI Peer to Peer printing is most
often utilized when a centralized NetWare or Windows Print Server is not used. IPP is utilized when
printing across the Internet is required.
Windows Printing via NetWare
Prior to printing from the Windows client via NetWare, the IB-2x must be configured for NetWare
printing (see the NetWare Printing section). Once NetWare printing is configured, use the Windows
Add Printer wizard (Start, Settings, Printers, Add Printer) to access the IB-2x NetWare print queue
or printer agent. Within the wizard, select Network and browse the network to the IB-2x NetWare print
object.
Windows Printing via TCP/IP
The following sections cover TCP/IP configuration for Windows 95/98, NT 4.0 and 2000. The IB-2x
provides support for several different methods of TCP/IP printing, including the new Internet Printing
Protocol (IPP) which enables printing over the Internet.
Windows 95/98 LPR or IPP
Verify that TCP/IP is Installed
Check under Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network. If TCP/IP is not on the list, it must be installed
prior to configuring TCP/IP printing.

5. Printer sharing is not commonly used with NetBEUI printing, however, some admins may want to
utilize sharing on NT 4.0 or 2000 to take advantage of their automatic driver download capability.
For steps on setting up printer sharing, see the Windows NT 4.0 LPR or Windows 2000 Standard
TCP/IP Printing instructions.
Windows Printer Sharing
Windows printer sharing involves a Windows machine functioning as a “host”. This host acts as a print
server; spooling jobs sent from Windows clients to the shared printer and forwarding them to the
physical printer. Any Windows machine (after 3.1) may function as either a client or a host or both.
The protocols used from client to host and from host to printer do not need to be the same. For
example, if a Windows NT machine is configured to share an LPR printer, clients running only IPX or
NetBEUI can still send jobs to the shared printer. The NT host will accept the jobs over IPX or NetBEUI
and send them to the printer over TCP/IP. This capability provides tremendous flexibility in Windows
network printing architecture.
Creating a Shared Printer
Defining a Shared Printer is part of the process of adding a printer and is explained in each of the
previous Windows sections.
Connecting to a Shared Printer
This section briefly describes the steps for connecting a client to a shared printer. Although slight
variations exist in the procedures for Windows 95/98, NT 4.0, and 2000, such as selecting Network
printer in 95/98 or Network printer server in NT 4.0, they are essentially the same and are thus
combined in the following instructions.
Connect Windows 95/98, NT 4.0, and 2000 Clients to a Shared Printer
If the host is an NT or 2000 machine which has been configured to download the driver to connecting
clients, then:
Run the Windows Add Printer wizard, select Network printer and browse the network for the shared
printer. The driver will be downloaded automatically.
If the host is a 95/98 machine or the NT or 2000 host has not been configured to download the driver to
connecting clients, then:
Install the printer driver from the Kyocera Mita Digital Library CD-ROM included with the printer. On the
Printer Connection screen select Network and browse the network for the shared printer.
9
Macintosh Configuration
KPDL, Kyocera’s PostScript compatible mode is required for Macintosh printing. KPDL is standard on many
Kyocera printers, however, it is optional on the following models: FS-600, FS-680, FS-1000, FS-7000 and all
LS (Japanese) models. If KPDL is installed, it will appear in the Emulation list in the following procedure and
on the printer Status Page.
Setting KPDL Emulation
For all printers except the FS-600, FS-680 and FS-1000, the default emulation for the Option Interface
must be set to KPDL or KPDL (Auto).
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Press the MODE key. If the first line of the LED panel does not already display INTERFACE, press the +
or - key until INTERFACE is displayed.
If the line below INTERFACE does not already display OPTION (OPTION 2 on the FS-7000), press the
ENTER key, then + or - until OPTION is displayed and press ENTER.
Press + or - until EMULATION is displayed. Press the ENTER key. A question mark will appear next to
the current emulation.
Press + or - until KPDL or KPDL (Auto) is displayed. If the printer will be receiving only KPDL jobs, set the
emulation to KPDL. If it will also be receiving non-KPDL jobs, set it to KPDL (Auto). Press ENTER to set
the new emulation.
Press the MODE key to exit the menu system.
Note:For digital copier front panel setting instructions, refer to the operation manual.
Naming the Printer and Setting the Zone
The IB-2x default name, e.g. KY163479, may be changed to a more user friendly name using a
standard web browser. Connecting with a browser requires TCP/IP to be setup on the Macintosh.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Configure the IB-2x IP address. See the IP Address Configuration section later in this guide.
Connect to the IB-2x with a web browser by entering the IP address as the URL, e.g.
http://206.129.6.54
When the IB-2x home page is displayed, select AppleTalk.
Enter the Printer Name. Enter the Zone Name if other than the default zone.
Click Submit. Once the change is accepted, select Reset on the navigation bar and click the Net Reset
button. Changes will not take effect until the IB-2x is reset.
Installing PPDs and Configuring the Printer
Macintosh support for Kyocera printers is provided by the LaserWriter driver included with the Macintosh Operating
System and by installation of model specific PPD files. These instructions apply to Mac OS 8 and 9 only.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
PPD files are installed from the Kyocera Mita Digital Library CD-ROM provided with the printer. Insert the
CD-ROM, open the appropriate language folder, and double click on the FS-Series Installer program.
Once PPD installation is complete, select Chooser from the Apple menu to open the Chooser.
Select the LaserWriter 8 driver, the AppleTalk Zone (if any) and the Ib-2x printer.
Click on Create. The driver will automatically select the appropriate PPD file and will display a dialog
allowing selection of the installed printer options.
Select installed options as necessary and confirm that the list of installed options matches the printer
configuration. Click on OK. A desktop printer for this model will be built on the desktop. Macintosh printing
configuration is now complete.
10
IP Address Configuration
There are many ways to configure the IB-2x IP address parameters. The easiest and most common methods
are: via the Quick Setup wizard, via DHCP,and via the printer’s front panel. The Windows Internet Naming
Service (WINS) is often used in conjunction with DHCP and is therefore also covered in this section.
The Quick Setup wizard allows easy setup of the IP address and many other parameters. See Using the Quick
Setup Wizard earlier in this guide.
DHCP Configuration (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP provides a mechanism for delivering IP configuration parameters, including IP address, subnet
mask, etc. to devices (hosts) on an IP network. DHCP alleviates the administrative burden of managing
individual IP addresses.
A DHCP server processes IB-2x DHCP Discovery broadcasts and returns an IP address to the IB-2x.
The DHCP server may be set up to grant an IP address for a limited time (a temporary lease) or for an
unlimited time (an unlimited lease), or it may be configured with a permanent address reservation for
each IB-2x.
IMPORTANT: In a non-WINS environment, it is highly recommended to set up the DHCP server to
grant the IB-2x an unlimited lease or permanent address reservation.
Unlimited Lease or Address Reservation in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000
In Windows NT and 2000, lease duration is set for a particular scope, or group of addresses. Thus,
lease duration should be set to Unlimited for the scope to which the IB-2x belongs. If this is not desired,
then the IB-2x should be defined as a Reserved Client.
A Reserved Client may be added with the Windows DHCP Manager by selecting Scope and then Add
Reservations. Enter the IB-2x Ethernet address (do not enter the colons, e.g. 008092a371d8), the IP
address and other IP parameters. The Ethernet address may be obtained from the IB-2x Network
Status Page.
Disabling DHCP
If IP address assignment with DHCP is not desired, it may be disabled using the Quick Setup wizard,
the printer front panel, a web browser, or several other methods.
IMPORTANT: Note, however, that DHCP IS AUTOMATICALLY DISABLED when the IP address is set
using any other method such as the Quick Setup wizard, printer front panel, etc.
WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) Configuration
WINS is used by Windows NT to provide a mechanism for mapping the NetBIOS name, commonly
referred to as host name, to an IP address. WINS requires an NT or 2000 server to be configured as a
WINS server.
WINS enables defining a printing configuration which references the printer by its name rather than by
its IP address. Thus, even if the printer IP address is changed via DHCP, the printing configuration will
still be valid and printing will continue uninterrupted. Another advantage of WINS is that a new printer
may seemlessly replace an old printer simply by, 1) giving the new printer the same host name as the
old printer, or 2) modifying the Windows LPR port configuration for the old printer with the host name
ofthe new printer.
11
WINS Registration and Naming
The IB-2x must be given the address of the primary WINS server where it will register its host name. It
may optionally be given the address of a secondary WINS server. The DHCP server is often setup to
provide the IB-2x with its host name and the WINS server addresses. Refer to your DHCP server
documentation for the proper setup procedures. Alternatively, the host name and WINS server
addresses may be configured using a web browser or the IB-2x AdminManager utility. See the Security
and Followup Management section later in this guide for information on using these utilities.
WINS registration may be verified by printing the IB-2x Network Status Page. Once the IB-2x has
successfully registered with a WINS server, the WINS Status will show as Registered in the TCP/IP
section.
IP Address Setup with the Printer Front Panel
The following procedure applies to Kyocera/Kyocera Mita printers. For digital copier front panel setting
instructions, refer to the operation manual.
1. Press the MODE key. If the first line of the LED panel does not already display INTERFACE, press
the + or - key until INTERFACE is displayed.
2. If the line below INTERFACE does not already display OPTION (OPTION 2 on the FS-7000),
press the ENTER key, then + or - until OPTION is displayed and press ENTER.
3. Press the > key to enter the Option submenu. (Note: Not all printers or firmware versions support
front panel setup. If there is no Option submenu or not all choices are available on the submenu,
please check the firmware requirements listed in the following section.)
4. Press + or - until TCP/IP is displayed. Press the > key to enter the TCP/IP submenu (only
accessible when the TCP/IP protocol is On).
5. Press + or - until IP Address is displayed. Press the ENTER key and a cursor will appear under
the last digit of the IP address.
6. Press the < or > key to move the cursor to the desired digit to change. Press + or - to change the
value of a digit.
7. Once all digits are set as desired, press the ENTER key to accept the new address.
8. Repeat steps 5 - 7 for Subnet Mask and Default Gateway (the router’s IP address). If unsure of the
correct Subnet mask and the first number in the IB-2x IP address is from 192 to 254, then use
255.255.255.0 as the Subnet mask.
9. When all settings for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway are completed, press the <
key to return to the Option submenu (TCP/IP is displayed).
Note: It is recommended to turn off protocols that are not in use.
10. Optional: Press + or - to display the protocol to turn off, e.g. EtherTalk. Press the ENTER key and
a ? will appear next to On. Press + or - to toggle the value to Off and press ENTER to accept the
new value. Repeat for each protocol to turn off.
11. When completed, press the MODE key to exit the menu system.
12. Press the STATUS key to print a status page and verify the new settings.
12
Front Panel Setup Firmware Requirements
Following are the printer firmware levels required for front panel setup capability. The firmware level of
the printer is listed as Software version on the printer status page.
FS/LS-800 version 38.01 or later
FS/LS-1700+ version 40.00 or later
FS/LS-7000 version 25.07 or later
FS/LS-3700+ version 32.02 or later
FS/LS-1000, 1200, 1750, 3750, 5800C, 5900C, 6300, 6700, 6900, 7000+, and 9000 all versions.
DP-1400, DP-1800, DP-2800+, DP-3600, Ci1100, KM-4230, and KM-5230,KM-6230 all versions.
IP Address Persistence
When the printer is turned off and back on will the IB-2x retain its IP address?
Temporary: If a temporary lease is obtained from a DHCP server, then the IP address is temporary.
That is, when the printer is turned off and back on, the IB-2x does not begin using its IP address until it
has negotiated with a DHCP server. Thus, if a DHCP server is not available, the IB-2x will not have an
IP address. This is necessary to prevent IP address conflicts in a DHCP environment.
Permanent: If an unlimited lease or address reservation is obtained from a DHCP server, or if set by
any method other than DHCP, then the IP address is permanent. That is, when the printer is turned off
and back on, the IB-2x will begin using its assigned IP address.
Security and Followup Management
While this guide focuses on the initial configuration of the IB-2x, this section is included to give a brief
explanation of security and available options for ongoing IB-2x management.
Password Security
An Admin password is used to control unauthorized modification of IB-2x settings. The factory default
is a blank Admin password. Unless an Admin password is defined, anyone with access through a web
browser or any of the IB-2x utilities may change the IB-2x settings. Therefore, defining an Admin
password is recommended.
WARNING: If the Admin password is forgotten, the only way to recover is to reset the IB-2x back to its
factory default condition (by using a jumper setting as described in the User’s Manual).
Web Browser
If the IB-2x is used on a TCP/IP network and has a valid IP address, it may be managed from any web
browser. The browser allows full configuration of all IB-2x settings, however, unlike the Quick Setup
wizard, the browser cannot create NetWare print objects. If a browser is used for NetWare configuration, then NWAdmin must also be used to create the NetWare print objects.
Connect to the IB-2x with a web browser by entering the IP address as the URL, e.g. http://
206.129.6.54
The home page displays basic information about the printer and the IB-2x as well as the current status
of the printer and the current printer front panel display. Click the Refresh button to update the printer
LCD display.
Select a category from the navigation bar on the left to view and set values for that category. If the IB2x Admin password has been set, you will be prompted to enter it when accessing any of the screens
other than the home page. If no Admin password has been set, access to all other pages is unrestricted. The Admin password may be defined on the Security tab.

Quick Setup Wizard
The Windows-based Quick Setup wizard is designed for fast and easy initial configuration. It does not
include all possible IB-2x settings, however, for changing the basic settings, it is also convenient for
followup configuration. For more information, see Using the Quick Setup Wizard earlier in this guide.
AdminManager
The Windows-based AdminManager utility may be used in either an IP or IPX environment to fully
configure any of the IB-2x settings. AdminManager may be installed or run from the IB-2x CD-ROM by
selecting Advanced Setup from the Configuration menu.
Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor
Ongoing printer management and monitoring is often done with the Windows-based Kyocera Mita
PrintMonitor programs. Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor allows advanced grouping, filtering, and sorting of
multiple Kyocera/ Kyocera Mita and other vendor printers. It provides several options for notification of
printer warnings or errors and may be used to view or modify a wide variety of printer and IB-2x
settings. Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor is available on the IB-2x CD-ROM.
