Manually Setting the Printer’s IP Address
Note
Ensure that your computer has a properly configured IP address for your network. Contact 
your network administrator for more information.
If you are on a network without a DNS server, or in an environment where the network 
administrator assigns printer IP addresses, you can use this method to manually set the IP 
address. Manually setting the IP address overrides DHCP and AutoIP. Alternatively, if you are 
in a small office with a single PC and use a dialup modem connection, you can manually set 
the IP address.
