Connections
• If the power delivered through a hub is
insufficient for the devices connected,
communication can become unreliable.
In this case, disconnect one or more
devices then perform a USB restart. (See
Restart USB Device on page 149.)
Using a USB printer
• Use a PictBridge-compatible printer.
Using a USB keyboard
• Do not use a PS/2 keyboard connected
using a PS/2-USB adapter.
Using a PC
• Note that you can connect a PC to this
device via USB to copy WMA/MP3/
MPEG-4 AAC, JPEG and DivX files. For
more information, see Copying files from
a PC (Connect PC) on page 125. To use
Connect PC with this device, your PC
must run either the Windows XP Home
Edition (SP2), Windows XP Professional
(SP2) or Windows Vista Home Premium
operating system and be able to run
Windows Media Player 11. Even if your
PC can run Windows Media Player 11,
we cannot guarantee that it will function

Network connection

This recorder can be connected to a local
area network (LAN) via the Ethernet port on
the rear panel.
When this recorder is connected to a
network, audio and video files stored on a PC
can be copied, and Audio CD title names can
be searched for on the Internet.
When the router connected to the LAN
terminal of this unit has the DHCP server
function, the network settings of this unit
can be made unnecessary by enabling the
DHCP server function of the router.
When the connected router does not have
the DHCP function, make the network
settings of this unit after connecting the
router — see Network on page 147 for
detailed instructions.
For best performance, we recommend using
a 100BASE-TX compatible PC and Ethernet
hub.
