When static IPv4 addresses are set for each interface
• IPv4 address: When set at the same value, the Ethernet interface is preferred.
• Subnet mask: When a value overlaps, the Ethernet interface is preferred.
• Gateway address: The value set is used. For the gateway address, set the gateway address
located in the subnetwork set by the interface. If the value is outside the subnet range set by the
interface, it operates as "0.0.0.0".
When obtaining addresses from the DHCP server
• IP Address, Subnet Mask: you can configure addresses assigned by a DHCP server. If IPv4
addresses overlap or the same subnet IP addresses are selected, the effective value is assigned
only to the prioritized interface. Ethernet has default interface priority.
• AutoNet: A temporary IPv4 address starting with 169.254 and not used on the network, is
assigned to the prioritized interface.
• Gateway Address, DNS Server Address, and Domain Name: You can configure the addresses
assigned by DHCP to the prioritized interface.
If the gateway address is beyond the range of the subnet selected for the interface, the printer
operates using "0.0.0.0".
Ethernet has default interface priority.
When there are static IPv4 addresses and addresses assigned by DHCP
• IPv4 Address and subnet mask: if a static IPv4 address is the same as an address assigned by
DHCP, or the static subnet mask address and the subnet mask address assigned by DHCP over-
lap, the printer uses the static IPv4 address interface. The interface with the DHCP setting is set
by default.
• Gateway Address: operates using the address entered manually.
If a static address is not selected, or is set to 0.0.0.0, the interface using the address assigned
by DHCP is used.
• NetBIOS name on a WINS server must be configured for the WINS server.
• Supported DHCP servers are Micontext macenu, and then press the with Windows 2000
Server, Windows Server 2003, and Windows NT 4.0, and the DHCP server included with
NetWare and UNIX.
• If you do not use the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the DHCP server so
the same IPv4 address is assigned every time.
• To use the WINS server, change the WINS server setting to "active" using the control panel.
• Using the WINS server, you can configure the host name via the remote network printer
port.
• DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you use DHCP relay-agent on a network via ISDN,
it will result in increased line charges. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN
