Setting IPv4 Address
 |
|
The machine's IPv4 address can be either assigned automatically by a dynamic IP addressing protocol, such as DHCP, or entered manually. When connecting the machine to a wired LAN, make sure that the connectors of the LAN cable are firmly inserted into the sockets (Connecting to a Wired LAN). You can test the network connection if necessary.

When you have changed the IP address after installing the printer driverWhen the MFNP port is used, the connection is maintained as long as the machine and the computer belong to the same subnet; therefore, you do not need to add a new port. When the standard TCP/IP port is used, you need to add a new port. Configuring Printer Ports
*If you do not know which port is used, see Checking the Printer Port.
