Setting fixed (static) network addresses

If your network is not equipped with DHCP, or if you are using direct connection to the
computer via a cross-over cable, you will install the GERBER SOLARA UV2 using fixed (static)
network addresses. You will need to obtain and assign the correct addresses in order for the
computer to be able to communicate with the printer. The network addresses are set in the
NETWORK CONFIGURE menu. If necessary, you will also configure your computer's IP
Address and Subnet Mask as described in "Setting the IP Address and Subnet Mask of your
Computer" on page 29.
The IP Address of the computer and GERBER SOLARA UV2 should be unique. The Subnet
Mask should be identical for the computer and the printer. In a single LAN environment leave
the Gateway address as the default setting (000.000.000.000)
CAUTION: Use care when entering addresses for the equipment. Entering incorrect
addresses could damage the network. In a large existing network, obtain the correct
addresses for the computer and the GERBER SOLARA UV2 from the network
administrator or IT Professional.
CAUTION: The device ID number (last octet or last two octets depending on the
type of network) of each device's IP Address must be unique. It can not be the same
address as any other computer or equipment in the network or it will cause
problems for the network.
Tip: The Default setting in the network address submenus returns the addresses to the
factory set values. The default settings are: IP Address: 169.254.000.002, Gateway:
000.000.000.000, and Subnet: 255.255.000.000.
