26 Installation
Configure the Printer
The printer can use either of the following network communication methods:

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)—The network automatically assigns the IP
address to the printer. The IP address of a printer that uses DHCP can change if the printer is
powered off and back on.

Static IP—You set the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address, as provided by your
network support personnel. A static IP address does not change when the printer is powered
off.
CardWizard issuance software requires that the printer use a static IP address. Refer to “Set a
Static IP Address” .
Set a Static IP Address
CardWizard issuance software requires that the printer have the same IP address at all times.
Because the default communication method is DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), you
must change the address method and assign a static IP address before you can set up CardWizard
software to issue cards.
1.
Obtain the following values from your network support personnel. Make sure you receive all
three values:

IP address

Subnet mask

Gateway address
You can set a static IP address on a printer even if it is not connected to the network.
For example, a group may set up several printers in a central location before installing
them at individual sites. You can test the IP address by setting up a local network. Refer
to
“Test the System Using a Local Network” on page 29 for more information.
