User Guide
If you are on a network managed by a network administrator, contact your network administrator to
obtain the network information.
For a home network using routers or other devices to connect the printer to the network, refer to the
device instructions on assigning network addresses. The router or device documentation can give you a
range of acceptable address numbers you can use. It is important that the addresses be similar to the IP
addresses used by other printers and computers on the network, but not the same. Only the last digit
must be different. For example, your printer can have the IPv4 address 192.168.1.2 while your computer
has the IP address 192.168.1.3. Another device can have the IP address 192.168.1.4.
The router could assign the static IP address of the printer to another computer that obtains its IP
address dynamically. To avoid having the IP address reassigned, give the printer an address at the higher
end of the range allowed by the router or device. For example, if your computer has IP address
192.168.1.2, and your device allows IP addresses to 192.168.1.25, select an address between
192.168.1.20 and 192.168.1.25.
In IPv6 network configurations, the IPv6 address is assigned automatically.
