Setup in WindowsSettings and Printing NetworkNetworkMaintenance and Spec. 9n Step 2: Setting up TCP/IP for the printerYou need to set the IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway for the printer. Set them byusing one of the following three methods. You may need to contact your network administratorto select the best way.• Using the DHCP server• Using the Network Setup Tool•Using the Remote Control Panel (see “Remote Control Panel” on page 23in “Settings and Printing”)NOTE• You can also setup the printer using BOOTP, RARP or ARP.n Using the DHCP serverIf the administrator manages the network with DHCP server, it is possible to assign IPaddress, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway automatically from DHCP server by default.Those can be viewed by printing out the configuration page. It can be printed by pressing thePRINT/RESET button on the printer panel less than 5 seconds.NOTE• If the printer receives the IP address with unlimited lease term, the printer keeps the addresspermanently. The printer saves the address statically and the DHCP function becomesdisable automatically.n Using the Network Setup ToolIf the administrator manages the IP address, contact him/her to confirm the values before thesetup. If not, set the unique value that is not used for the other devices on the network. Referto the example shown below.Example (assigning the IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway)IP address: 172.16.x.x(x: you can choose any number from 0-255 except 0.0 and 255.255)Be sure that the IP address is not assigned to the other devices.Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0It is the same value for all devices.Default Gateway: Not required.
