Using DHCP

The IP address can be acquired from the DHCP server.

Note

PC administrator privileges are required for the setup.

Incorrectly allocating the IP address may cause major malfunctions such as crashing the network. Thoroughly consult the

network administrator before making the settings.

DHCP is the protocol that allocates IP addresses

automatically to each TCP/IP network. You can

set a subnet mask in addition to the IP address.

Set the DHCP server so that a ﬁxed IP address is allocated

to the device. Allocating IP addresses randomly may

disable printing via the network. See the DHCP server

manuals for how to allocate ﬁxed IP addresses.
