Setting through DHCP
DHCP is a protocol for dynamically assigning IP addresses to
each host on a TCP/IP network. It can set subnet masks as well
as IP addresses.
• This function is not available unless there is a DHCP
server on the network.
• [DHCP/BOOTP protocol] for the Fast EtherNet needs
to be set to [ENABLE]. If [DISABLE] has been selected,
see “ Preparation of Your Printer” to change the setting
to [ENABLE].
• Configure on the DHCP server so that a fixed IP
address is assigned to the Fast EtherNet . If you select
an IP address at random, you cannot use the network
for printing. For the procedure for assigning a fixed IP
address, see the manual for the DHCP server.
