Using AutoNet
If the printer IPv4 address is not assigned by a DHCP server automatically, a temporary IPv4 address
starting with 169.254, which is not used on the network, can be automatically selected by the printer.
You must change this setting to "on" to use AutoNet.
• The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that selected by AutoNet.
• You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page.
• When AutoNet is running, the NetBIOS name is not registered on the WINS server.
• The printer cannot communicate with devices that do not have the AutoNet function. However, this
printer can communicate with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.2.3. or higher.

in a DHCP environment. This section explains configuring the WINS server.
• The WINS server is supported with Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or higher, and Windows
2000 Servers WINS Manager.
