Setting the printer's IP address using the front panel

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com
To correctly function on an Ethernet network using TCP/IP protocols and to use
PhaserLink, the printer must have the correct IP address. The IP address is
assigned by the local system administrator. Additionally, the printer's IP
address must be set and TCP/IP enabled to access the printer through a Web
browser. With the printer's IP address set the printer is accessible on an Ethernet
network for software authorization to enable PCL or UNIX-host TCP/IP
printing. As an alternative you can download the editable PostScript snippet
IPconfig.ps to the printer. the snippet is available on the Tektronix web page,
bulletin board and the printer's CD-ROM.

1. Press the front panel's Menu button and scroll to the menu item
Network settings.
2. Enter the Network settings sub-menu by pressing the Menu button.
3. Scroll to the sub-menu item TCP/IP and press Menu to enter it.
4. Scroll to the item TCP/IP Address and press Select.

format XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. Verify that the IP address is correct for the
printer. Use button 2 to increment a digit and button 3 to shift to the
next digit.
