Configuring TCP/IP
Your printer can be set up with a variety of TCP/IP network information,
such as an IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway, and DNS addresses.
There are several ways in which your printer can be assigned a TCP/IP
address, depending on your network.
• Static addressing: A TCP/IP address is assigned manually by the
system administrator.
• Dynamic addressing via BOOTP/DHCP (default): A TCP/IP address
is assigned automatically by the server.
Note
Before configuring TCP/IP, you need to set the network
protocol to TCP/IP.
Static addressing
To enter a TCP/IP address from your printer’s control panel, take the
following steps:
1 Press Menu until Network appears on the bottom line of the
display and press OK.
2 Press OK when TCP/IP appears.

OK.
4 Press OK when IP Address appears.
5 Set the first byte between 0 and 255 using the Up/down arrow
buttons and press OK to move to the next byte.
Repeat this to complete the address from the 1st byte to the 4th

subnet mask and gateway address.
