Network Setup options
IP Address
[127.0.0.1]
Enter the Pi5500 IP address for Ethernet. This IP address, unlike an IP address set
automatically, remains the same if you restart the Pi5500. You must change the default
to a valid address for your network.
Subnet Mask
[255.255.255.0]
This option lets you modify the subnet mask for printing with TCP/IP over Ethernet.
The subnet mask is set to
255.255.255.0
by default. To set the subnet mask, enter one
of the following values:
•
255.0.0.0
if the IP address starts with a number less than 128
•
255.255.0.0
if the IP address starts with a number from 128 through 191
•
255.255.255.0
if the IP address starts with a number greater than 191

Confirm the subnet mask setting with your network administrator before
proceeding. In some cases the required setting may be different from those listed.
Get Gateway Address Automatically
Yes/No [No]
Use this option to get the gateway address automatically for printing with TCP/IP.
This option appears only if you selected DHCP or BOOTP as the protocol (see
page 2-16).
If you select a DHCP or BOOTP protocol and later change it to RARP, you must
return to Gateway Setup and set Get Gateway Address Automatically to No. You can
then set the address manually. This is because RARP does not support automatic
assignment of the gateway address.
Gateway Address
[0.0.0.0]
This option appears only if you answered No to Get Gateway Address Automatically,
or if you selected RARP as the protocol.
Set the gateway address for printing with TCP/IP. After setting the gateway address,
choose Exit TCP/IP Setup and proceed to Service Setup.
