Synchronizing the Date and Time with Time Server

When synchronizing with the time server (NTP server), you can synchronize the time of the printer and the computer on the network. The time server may be operated within the organization or published on the Internet.

When using the CA certificate or Kerberos authentication, time-related trouble can be prevented by synchronizing with the time server.

  1. Enter the printer's IP address into a browser to access Web Config.

    Enter the printer's IP address from a computer that is connected to the same network as the printer.

    You can check the IP address of the printer from the following menu.

    Settings > General Settings > Network Settings > (Standard) > Network Status > Wired LAN/Wi-Fi Status

  2. Enter the administrator password to log in as an administrator.

  3. Select in the following order.

    Device Management tab > Date and Time > Time Server.

  4. Select Use for Use Time Server.

  5. Enter the time server address for Time Server Address.

    You can use IPv4, IPv6 or FQDN format. Enter 252 characters or less. If you do not specify this, leave it blank.

  6. Enter Update Interval (min).

    You can set up to 10,080 minutes by the minute.

  7. Click OK.

    Note:

    You can confirm the connection status with the time server on Time Server Status.
