TCP/IP and IP Addresses
If your computer is on a large network, contact your network administrator for the appropriate
TCP/IP addresses and additional configuration information.
If you are creating your own small Local Area Network or connecting the system directly to
your computer using Ethernet, follow the procedure for automatically setting the system’s
Internet Protocol (IP) address.
PCs and systems primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network.
With TCP/IP protocols, each system and computer must have a unique IP address. It is
important that the addresses are similar, but not the same; only the last digit needs to be
different. For example, your system can have the address 192.168.1.2 while your computer has
the address 192.168.1.3. Another device can have the address 192.168.1.4.
Generally, Macintosh computers use either TCP/IP or the EtherTalk protocol to talk to a
networked printer. For Mac OS X systems, TCP/IP is preferred. Unlike TCP/IP, however,
EtherTalk does not require systems or computers to have IP addresses.
Many networks have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server
automatically programs an IP address into every PC and system on the network that is
configured to use DHCP. A DHCP server is built into most cable and DSL routers. If you use a
cable or DSL router, see your router’s documentation for information on IP addressing.

Automatically Setting the System’s IP Address
If the system is connected to a small established TCP/IP network without a DHCP server, use
the installer on the
Software and Documentation CD-ROM
to detect or assign an IP address to
your system. For further instructions, insert the
Software and Documentation CD-ROM
into
your system’s CD-ROM drive. After the Installer launches, follow the prompts for installation.
Note:
For the automatic Installer to function, the system must be connected to an established
TCP/IP network.
