4. Wired Network Settings (For wired network printer models)

You may need to set some network parameters on the printer. These parameters can be set from the embedded Web server.

4.1. Set IP Address

The IP address of the printer may be automatically obtained through DHCP function or set manually.

| Automatic Setting

DHCP automatic setting function is enabled by default on the printer.

1. Connect the printer to the network through a network cable and complete the startup preparation work.

2. The printer will automatically obtain the IP address assigned by the server. The IP address obtained automatically can be used after a few minutes.

| Note: | • If DHCP cannot automatically obtain the IP address, the printer will automatically use the default IP address: 169.254.xx.xx. • Due to the features of DHCP, the IP address of the printer automatically assigned by the network may vary if the printer has not been used for a long time or the network access point changes, which could result in unsuccessful connection to the printer. It is recommended that the IP address automatically assigned by the network is bound to the MAC address of the printer while the DHCP function is enabled.

| Manual Setting

Type the IP address in the Web browser's address bar to open the embedded Web server.

1. Click Settings in the navigation bar to open the Settings page;

2. Select Network Settings - IPV4 Settings;

3. Set IP Address Assignment Mode (Manual), IP Address and Subnet Mask. Other items are optional;

4. Click Apply to save the settings.

| Note: | • You can use the embedded Web server to change the IP Address Assignment Mode into Automatic or Manual.

4.2. Install the Printer to Network

In this setting, the printer is directly connected to the network and can be set to allow all computers on the network to print directly on the printer.

1. Before starting the printer, first connect the network cable to the network port of the printer to establish direct connection to the network.

2. Start the printer and wait until the status indicator on the control panel displays Ready status, as shown below.

3. Insert the printer CD into the computer. If the software installer does not start, browse to the "setup.exe" file on the CD, and double-click to run the file.

4. Follow the operation instructions of the installer.

5. Continue to complete the installation.

| Note: | • When the installer prompts you to select a printer, you can select the appropriate printer name from the Detected Printer; • If the printer name does not appear in the Detected Printer, please click Refresh and search for printers on the network; • If you know the IP address of the printer to be connected, you can select Specify an IP Address for Installation to enter the IP address for installation.
