How to locate a printer IP address • You can locate the printer IP address by viewing the printer network setup page. How are IP addresses assigned? An IP address may be assigned by the network using DHCP. Once the printer is set up on a computer, the computer sends all print jobs across the network to the printer using this address. Many networks have the ability to automatically assign IP addresses. Auto-IP allows individual devices to assign themselves a unique IP address. However, DHCP is the most commonly-used method to assign addresses. If the IP address is not automatically assigned, you can try manually entering an address after selecting your printer from the available list. 30
