Changing Printer Networking Settings
You can view and change printer networking settings with the QL-800 Toolbox
application. This application is available in the following situations:

installed for USB printing.
• Your PC is connected to the printer via the network and the driver software has
been installed for network printing.
The QL-800 Toolbox application allows you to enable/disable DHCP and change the
IP address of the printer.
