Lexmark W812 - Step 11: Configure for TCP;IP; Assigning a Printer IP Address

Configure for TCP/IP
Step 11: Configure for TCP/IP/IP
If you have TCP/IP available on your network, we recommend that
you assign an IP address to the printer.
Assigning a
printer IP address
If your network is using DHCP, an IP address is automatically
assigned after you connect the network cable to the printer.
1 Look for the address under the “TCP/IP” heading on the
network setup page you printed in “Printing a network
setup page” on page 38.
2 Go to “Verifying the IP settings” on page 40 and begin with
step 2.
Note: You can find instructions
for other methods of setting the
IP address in the online
documentation on the
drivers CD that shipped with
your printer. Launch the CD,
click View Documentation, and
then Network Printer Install.
If your network is not using DHCP, then you must manually assign an
IP address to the printer.
One of the easiest ways is to use the operator panel:
1 Press Menu until you see Network Menu, and then press
Select.
2 Press Menu until you see Standard Network, and then press
Select.
Standard Network appears if you purchased a printer with a
network port on the printer system board. If you have a
MarkNet print server installed in the option card, you see
Network Option 1.
3 Press Menu until you see Std Net Setup (or Network 1 Setup),
and then press
Select.
4 Press Menu until you see TCP/IP, and then press Select.
5 Press Menu until you see Set IP Address, and then press
Select.
