Information

Comments

Internet (IP) address for
the printer

Format is x.x.x.x, where x represents a decimal number
from 0 - 255.

Network mask

If you are unsure, leave this blank; the printer will
choose an appropriate mask.

Default Router/Gateway
address

Router address. You need this address if you want to
communicate with the printer from anywhere other
than the local network segment.

Broadcast address

This is the address the printer uses to

send

broadcast

packets. Regardless of how this parameter is set, the
printer

accepts

broadcast packets from any of the

commonly used broadcast address conventions.

It should not be necessary to set this address, because
the printer calculates it automatically. However, you
can override the default setting.
