using PhaserLink software, if you have a World Wide Web browser. For more

Printer’s Information Link”.

DNS (Phaser 740 and 780 printers only)
The printers support Domain Name Services (DNS) through an embedded DNS
stub resolver. The DNS resolver protocol communicates with one or more DNS
servers to request the IP address for a given host name or the host name for a
given IP address.
To use an IP host name for the printer, the system administrator must have
already configured one or more DNS servers and a local DNS domain name
space data base.
