Test the IP Address Using a Local Network

You can set up a local network consisting of the printer and a computer. This allows you to test
whether the printer and computer can communicate using the static IP address, and to test that
the printer is functioning correctly. You might use this procedure if you set up multiple printers in
a central location before installing them at individual sites.
This procedure is optional.

You also can use this procedure to connect a printer to a computer using an

Ethernet cable if the USB port on the printer is unavailable.
