person for a solution, and then print another
network setup page to verify that you are

Configure for TCP/IP
If you have TCP/IP available on your network, we
recommend that you assign an IP address to the
printer.
Assigning a printer IP address
If your network is using DHCP, an IP address is
automatically assigned after you connect the network
cable to the printer.
1 Print a network setup page.
2 Look for the address under the “TCP/IP” heading
on the network setup page.
3 Go to Verify printer setup on page 3 and begin
with step 2.
Note: You can find instructions for other
methods of setting the IP address in the
online documentation on the drivers CD
that shipped with your printer. Launch
the CD, and then click View
