TCP/IP Dynamic Addressing
1. Open your Web browser and enter the IP address of the printer in the address field. Press Enter to 
open CentreWare Internet Services.
2. Click the Properties tab.
3. Enter the system administrator User Name and Password (default admin1111) if prompted.
4. Click the Connectivity folder, then the Protocols folder.
5. Click TCP/IP.
6. Review the available selections as displayed on your screen and explained in the TCP/IP 
Configuration Selection List, below.
7. Accept the default Host Name, or type in your own unique Host Name for this printer.
8. Select DHCP or BOOTP as your method for obtaining an IP Address.
Caution: 
Changing the IP address for the printer will affect LPR/LPD, FTP, SNMP, and Port 9100 
printing. It will also interrupt the ability to communicate with the printer using 
CentreWare Internet Services. When you change the printer's IP Address, make sure to print out a 
Configuration Report so that you have a record of the TCP/IP addresses for use with computers that 
need to communicate with the printer using TCP/IP.
Note:
When using DHCP, set a reasonably long Lease Time for the IP Address so that the printer can be 
shut down and serviced, when required, without being continuously assigned a new IP Address.
Note:
Upon rebooting, when the system comes up, if it can’t locate a DHCP server on the network it will 
use whatever IP address it was previously configured with.
9. Determine the method to use to supply the DNS Server IP Addresses (to resolve Host Names with 
IP Addresses).
10. Determine whether or not Dynamic DNS should be enabled.
11. Click Apply when done.
