Setting your printer's IP address using the printer's front panel
|
|
You can use the printer's front panel to set its IP address.
- Note
- If you are attempting to perform any front panel procedures and you don't see the expected menu choices on the front panel display, the front panel may be locked. You may need to unlock the front panel before continuing. Contact your System Administrator for more information.
Press the Menu button; the front panel briefly displays Entering Menu, then displays Help Pages.
- Note
-
When you are in the menu, if the front panel is not used for 5 minutes, the printer returns to the Ready state.
-
Enter the Network Settings menu by pressing the right (---->) or left (<----) arrow buttons until the front panel displays Network Settings.
-
Press the Menu button until the front panel displays TCP/IP:enabled or TCP/IP:disabled.
-
If TCP/IP is enabled, go on to Step 4.
- If TCP/IP is disabled, press the right (---->) arrow button until the front panel displays TCP/IP:enabled, then press the OK button. The front panel briefly displays Selected, then the front panel displays the following message:
TCP/IP
<----- -----> Menu
Press the Menu button until the front panel displays TCP/IP:enabled.
-
Press the OK button; the front panel displays Selected. Quickly, (within 1.5 seconds) press both the right (--->) and left (<---) arrow buttons together. The front panel displays the following in rapid succession:
- Blank display
- TCP/IP: enabled
- Ready
- Processing data
- Note
-
If you are too slow in pressing the right and left arrow buttons, the front panel display reverts to the TCP/IP message in Step 3; go back to Step 3 and try again.
-
The front panel displays the following message:
IP is 000.000.000.000
Change OK
- Note
-
The IP address displayed on your printer may be different than the one in this example. Setting the IP address to 000.000.000.000 causes the printer to use Dynamic Address Resolution to set its IP address.
-
Press the Change button; the front panel displays the following message:
000.000.000.000
Increment Shift Select
-
Press the Increment button to set the left-most digit of the address.
-
Press the Shift button to advance to the next digit. Press the Increment button to set this digit.
-
Use the Shift and Increment buttons as described in Step 8 to set the remaining digits.
-
When the address is correctly set, press the Set button to enter your settings into the printer; the front panel briefly displays IP Address set, then returns to Ready. The IP address is now set in the printer.
