Although the method for entering a static IP address without using the
DHCP server is described in the procedure here, it is also possible to au-
tomatically assign the IP address from the DHCP server. When “IP Appli-
cation Method” is specified as “Auto Input” and “DHCP Settings” is set
to “ON” in the setting screen that is displayed, the IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway address settings are automatically assigned from the
DHCP server on the network, so it is not necessary to assign them man-
ually. However, note the following when setting “DHCP Settings” to
“ON”.
Check with the network administrator that the DHCP server exists. If the
DHCP server does not exist, be sure to specify settings for “IP Address”,
“Subnet Mask”, and “Default Gateway”.
If the settings for the IP address and other items have been assigned us-
ing the DHCP server, there is a possibility that they may be automatically
changed. When the settings for the IP address and other items are
changed, if the IP address has been used to specify a printer on the net-
work for printing, there is a possibility that printing may not be possible
because this machine cannot communicate with the network. If “DHCP
Settings” has been set to “ON”, it is recommended that the IP address
assigned to this machine be fixed in the DHCP server settings.
