Question Answer

How do I reconfigure my
PC Printer Driver to
connect to a different
Printer or different IP
address?

Use the Windows “Add Printer Wizard” to create a printer
instance to communicate to the printer at the new IP
address.

This may require adding a new “Remote TCP/IP Card
Printer Port” configured to communicate to the printer at
the proper IP address.

See the appropriate Windows documentation for additional
help.

How can I verify/change
what IP address my
installed Printer Driver is
expecting to find my
Printer?

Follow this procedure.

1. Open the Printer Driver properties window.

2. Select

Start -> Settings -> Printers and Faxes ->

[your Printer Driver] -> Properties.

3. From the Ports tab, select Configure Port. The Host

name will indicate IP address of the connected Printer.
(Note: If this does not match your Printer’s IP
address, you can change it from this window.)

4. Enter the correct IP address.

5. Select

OK.

6. Select

Apply.

7. Select

Close.
