The printer can be configured in the followingways:• Locally attached (connected to a computer using a USB cable)• Wireless network• Wireless network and locally attached simultaneouslyWhat is a MAC address?A Media Access Control (MAC) address is a 48-bit identifier associated with the hardware of network equipment. TheMAC address may also be called the physical address because it is connected to the hardware of a device instead ofits software. The MAC address is displayed as a hexadecimal number in this format: 01-23-45-67-89-AB.While it is possible to change the MAC address of a network device, it is not common practice to do so. For this reason,MAC addresses are considered permanent. IP addresses are easily changed, so MAC addresses are a more reliablemethod of identifying a specific device on a network.Routers with security capabilities may allow filtering of MAC addresses on networks. This allows a managed list ofdevices to access the network, identified by their MAC addresses, as well as prevent access from unwanted devices.If your network uses MAC address filtering, then be sure to add the MAC address of the printer to the list of alloweddevices.How do I find the MAC address?Most network equipment has a unique hardware identification number to distinguish it from other devices on thenetwork. This is called the Media Access Control (MAC) address.When installing the printer on a network, make sure you select the printer with the correct MAC address.The MAC address label is located inside the printer.Networking80
