Note

If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System (DNS), you can also
enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can
also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen on the Network
Configuration page. To learn how to print the Network Configuration page, see Printing the Network
Configuration page
on page 60. The
NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name
