Installing to Ethernet
Note – the printer’s default IP address mode is ‘
Dynamic
’ (DHCP), therefore when first connected to the network it will request an
IP address from the network’s DHCP server and will use the address provided by the server. If your network cannot
provide a dynamic address, the printer will automatically revert to a default static address of :-
IP Address - 192. 168. 102. 254
Subnet mask - 255. 255. 0. 0
Default Gateway - 192. 168. 101. 1
(If these static address settings do not suit your network’s requirements, they can be changed by using the Magicard
Support Utility).
Important
– IT networks can be diverse and complex, therefore it is recommended that this procedure is carried out
only
by your
company’s IT Personnel .
