Using Automatic Address Assignment
Automatic address assignment, known as DHCP configuration, is only possible if
the network being used supports it. If the network does support DHCP, put the C
Series printer into DHCP mode by selecting the
DHCP
checkbox under the address
fields in the
Ethernet Settings
area. It is not necessary to enter any addresses in
the fields above.
In addition to the DHCP check box, select the
LPD
and
RTEL
check boxes. Type
9100
in the
RTEL Port Number
field and type
32768
in the
Ethernet Text
Buffer Size
field.
For the printer to receive its address from the network, it must be connected to the
network when it is turned on. If the printer is not connected to the network when
set to DHCP mode, the mode setting will take effect, but the printer will not
actually receive a new address until it is connected to the network and restarted.
