4. Select a method for specifying the IP address. If you select
Automatic, DHCP becomes available and assigns an IP
address automatically. If you want to set the IP address
manually, select Manual instead.
Note:
❏ The network administrator must confirm any changes made to
the IP address settings.
❏ When Automatic is selected, DHCP becomes available. To use
the DHCP server, make sure it is installed on your computer
and correctly configured. See your operating system's online
help for detailed instructions.
❏ If the Dynamic DNS function is not supported, we recommend
that you select Manual and enter an IP address. If you select
Automatic, the IP address of the print server changes every
time you turn on the printer, and you need to change the printer
port setting accordingly.
5. If you want to get a private address between 169.254.1.1 and
169.254.254.254 automatically when an IP address cannot be
obtained by the DHCP server, leave the Set using Automatic
Private IP Addressing (APIPA) check box selected.
6. When setting an IP address using the ping command, select
Set using PING. Do not select when setting an IP address with
EpsonNet WinAssist/MacAssist/WebAssist; this prevents
any unexpected change of the IP address.
Note:
Be sure not to select the check box when not using ping; this prevents
an unexpected change of the IP address by EpsonNet WebManager.
