10 2 Support information for installing to a wireless network ENWW
Firmware Version The internal networking component and device firmware
revision code separated by a hyphen.
Note You might be asked to provide the firmware
revision code if you call for support.
Host Name The TCP/IP name assigned by the install software to the
device. By default, this is the letters NPI followed by the last six
digits of the MAC address. You can also configure the device
name through the embedded Web server.
IP Address The printer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address. This address
uniquely identifies the device on the network.
IP addresses are assigned dynamically through DHCP or
AutoIP. You can also set up a static IP address, though this is
not recommended.
Manually assigning an invalid IP address during install will
cause your network components to not see the device.
Subnet Mask A subnet is an IP address assigned by the install software to
make an additional network available as part of a larger
network. Subnets are specified by a subnet mask. This mask
determines which bits of the printer’s IP address identify the
network and subnet and which bits identify the device itself.
Note It is recommended that the printer and the
computers that use the subnet mask all
reside on the same subnet.
Default Gateway A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another
network. A node in this instance can be a computer or some
other device.
Note The address of the default gateway is
assigned by the install software.
Config by The protocol used to assign the IP address to the device:
● Automatic (AutoIP): the installation software determines the
configuration parameters.
● DHCP: the configuration parameters are supplied by a
dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server on the
network. On small networks, this could be a router.
● Manual: the configuration parameters are set manually,
such as a static IP address.
● Not Specified: mode when initializing.
