gateway), you can change them manually.

TIP:

Before setting a manual IP address, it is recommended to first connect the printer to the network using

Automatic mode. This allows the router to configure the printer with other needed settings like subnet mask,

default gateway and DNS address.

CAUTION:

Be careful when manually assigning an IP address. If you enter an invalid IP address during the

installation, your network components cannot connect with the printer.
