Step 1: Determine the Network Policy 
First, determine whether DHCP is used within your organization. If DHCP is used, some or all IP 
addresses are assigned dynamically. When using DHCP, “hostname” is the identifier used to 
specify PCs or Scanners. Sharp multifunction scanners require DNS to resolve the address from 
“hostname” to “IP address”. 
Refer to the table below to determine the network policy of your organization. 
POLICY DHCP 
ADDRESSING 
FOR 
SCANNER(S) 
ADDRESSING FOR 
CLIENT PC(S) 
1) Simple addressing 
Yes or No 
Static 
Static 
2) Regular DHCP 
Yes 
Static 
Dynamic 
3) Full DHCP 
Yes 
Dynamic 
Dynamic 
4) Exception DHCP 
Yes 
Dynamic 
Static 
Note: It is not recommended that “Full DHCP” and “Exception DHCP” policies be used. They 
require special knowledge in network configuration, including careful setup of the “NIC” in the 
scanner. If you so use these policies, please refer to the NIC manual to setup dynamic scanner 
addressing. 
Step 2: Set up the DHCP and DNS Servers 
If you are using the Regular, Full, or Exception DHCP policy, DHCP and DNS servers should be 
set up prior to installing the Network Scanner Tool.  These servers maintain the table of dynamic 
addresses for PCs [2) and 3) above] and Scanners [3) and 4) above]. 
If you are using the Simple Addressing policy, DHCP and DNS servers are not required, and you 
may skip this step. 
Step 3: Set up Scanner Network Parameters 
If you are using DHCP and the PC addresses are dynamic [2) or 3) above], the addresses of the 
DNS servers must be set up using the scanner’s Web pages. 
If the PC addresses are static [1) or 4) above], it’s recommended that you leave the addresses of 
the DNS servers blank in the scanner’s Web pages. Specifying information for DNS servers in the 
scanner’s Web Page that is incorrect may cause problems.  It is better to leave these addresses 
blank and let the Network Scanner Tool determine the proper addresses automatically during its 
inspection of the scanners.
