4.5 How to Configure the DNS
DNS is a service that translates domain names into IP addresses.
Using DNS, names can be assigned to IP addresses and vice versa. If a
DNS server is available in your network, you can use DNS for your
print server.
Benefits and
Purpose
If you use a domain name during the configuration process, you
must first enable and configure DNS. DNS is used for the configura-
tion of the time server, for example.
