Setting the IP Address
This section describes how to set the IP address.
You can set the IP address using one of the following two methods:
●
Setting the IP address from the control panel.
●
Using the "IP Address Setting Tool" contained on the "Driver CD Kit" CD-ROM supplied
with this printer.
The following procedure is for setting the IP address from the control panel. To set up the
IP address using the CD-ROM, refer to the manual stored on the "Driver CD Kit" CD-ROM
supplied with this printer.
You can change the IP address from CentreWare Internet Services. For information about CentreWare Internet Ser-
vices, refer to "5.1 Setting up the Printer from the Computer (CentreWare Internet Services)" (P.102).
Depending on the network environment, you may need to set the subnet mask and gateway address for the printer. If
your network has the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP environment, this printer can obtain these addresses from each of
these servers.
By default, these addresses are automatically obtained from the DHCP server.
●
Use the DHCP server together with the WINS (Windows Internet Name Service) server.
●
When using the BOOTP or RARP server, change the item [Get IP Address] to [BOOTP] or [RARP] on the con-
trol panel. Check with your system administrator for any queries about the BOOTP or RARP environment.
For details on items and setting methods, refer to "Chapter 7 Setting Common Menu " (P.255).
