Press Enter.
2.  
Click the Properties button or Tab.
3.  
Click the plus symbol (+) to the left of the Protocol Settings file folder.
4.  
Select TCP/IP in the directory tree.
5.

, below.
6.

7.  
Select the desired method for obtaining an IP Address.
8.  
If Manual is selected, type in the addresses that apply for IP AddressSubnet Mask, and Gateway
NOTE: If DHCP or BOOTP addressing method is selected, you cannot manually change the IP 
Address, Subnet Mask, or Gateway. Select Manual if you wish to manually enter in these addresses. 
CAUTION: Changing the IP address for the Printer will affect NetBIOS/IP, LPR/LPD, FTP, SNMP, and 
Port 9100 printing. It will also interrupt the ability to communicate with the printer using the Internet 
Services (series of web pages on the Printer). When you change the Printer's IP Address, make sure to 
print out a Settings List (as stated in this guide) so that you have a record of the TCP/IP addresses for 
use with workstations that need to communicate with the Printer using TCP/IP. 
DHCP TIP: When using DHCP, set a reasonably long Lease Time for the IP Address so that the Printer 
can be restarted, as required when changing operating parameters, without being continuously 
assigned a new IP Address. 
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.  
Determine the method to use to supply the SMTP Server IP Address.
12.  
Determine the method to use to supply the WINS Server IP Address (to resolve Host Names with IP 
Addresses exclusively in an NT environment).
13.  
Determine whether or not IP Filter should be enabled (to restrict access to the Printer). For more 
information, see Restricting Printer Access in this guide.
14.  
When finished modifying settings, click the Apply New Settings button. To exit the settings screen 
without making changes, click the Restore Settings button. 
Note: Changes to TCP/IP settings will not be applied until you restart the Printer. A remote Reboot button is
