Wired network setup
Printing a network configuration report
You can print Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will show the
current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network.
Press the (Menu) button on the control panel and select Network > Network Conf. .
Using this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine’s MAC address and IP
address.
For example:
• MAC Address: 00:15:99:41:A2:78
• IP Address: 169.254.192.192
Setting IP address
First, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and managements. In most cases a
new IP address will be automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
server located on the network.
When you install the printer driver, do not configure both IPv4 and IPv6. We recommend
to configure either IPv4 or IPv6 (see "Installing driver over the network" on page 50).
IPv4 configuration
You can also set the TCP/IPv4 from Embedded Web Server. When the Embedded Web
Server window opens, move the mouse cursor over the Settings of the top menu bar and
then click Network Settings ("Settings tab" on page 59).
If you have a DHCPv4 server on your network, you can set one of the following options for default
dynamic host configuration.
1 Select (Menu) > Network > TCP/IP (IPv4) > DHCP on the control panel.
2 Press OK to select the required value you want.
