Configuring the Printer
1. Ensure that your printer is connected to power, to your network, and to the fax line, as needed.
2. Confirm that your printer is recognized on your network.
By default, the printer is assigned an IP address automatically from a DHCP server over a TCP/IP
network. If you have another type of network, or want to assign a static IP address, refer to IP.
Note: Xerox recommends using DHCP reservations to assign IP addresses to your
printers. DHCP reservations provide the most consistent IP addresses and the ability to
connect with the Host Name.

your location, time zone, and date and time preferences.
