• If the printer is already connected to the network,
confirm the IP address assigned to the printer.
Ask your network administrator for further
information.
When the printer cannot be found on the network
If your printer cannot be found when connecting to
the network for the first time, setup an IP address
for the printer and then configure it on the printer.
Once charging the ink has finished, specify the IP
address on the printer's control panel.
• Do not operate the printer until charging the
ink has finished.
Important
Using DHCP
To use the DHCP server function to automatically allocate an IP address to
the printer, one of the following settings needs to be configured. Check with
your network administrator for the settings that match your system.
When used in an environment with a DNS server
Configure the DNS dynamic update function in the printer and register the
printer DNS host name with the DNS server.
When used in an environment without a DNS server
Configure the DHCP server to always allocate the same IP address to the
printer.
This section describes how to configure the DNS dynamic update function
from the printer control panel.
• The DNS dynamic update function can also be configured using Remote
UI. Refer to "Configuring the Printer's TCP/IP Network Settings With
Note
RemoteUI" in the user guide for details.
