Printer Specifications
The specification that the printer supports standard or connection mode, see the User's Guide.
Type of IP Address Assignment
There are two types for assigning an IP address to the printer.
Static IP address:
Assign the predetermined unique IP address to the printer.
The IP address is not changed even when turning on the printer or turning off the router, so you can manage the
device by IP address.
This type is suitable for a network where many printers are managed, such as a large office or school.
Automatic assignment by DHCP function:
The correct IP address is automatically assigned when the communication between the printer and router that
supports the DHCP function succeeds.
If it is inconvenient to change the IP address for a particular device, reserve the IP address in advance and then
assign it.
Note:
For the port for the print queue, select the protocol that can automatically detect the IP address, such as EpsonNet Print
Port.
