Setting a wireless network with network cable

Your machine is a network compatible machine. To enable your machine to

work with your network, you will need to perform some configuration

procedures.

Refer to your network administrator, or the person that set up your

wireless network for information about your network configuration.

Setting IP address

First, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and

managements. In most cases, a new IP address will be automatically

assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located

on the network.
In a few situations, the IP address must be set manually. This is called a

static IP and is often required in a corporate Intranets for security reasons.

DHCP IP assignment: Connect your machine to the network, and wait a

few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the

machine. Then, print the Network Configuration Report as explained

above. If the report shows that the IP address has changed, the

assignment was successful. You will see the new IP address in the
report. (See "Printing a network configuration report" on page 2.)

Static IP assignment: Use SetIP program to change the IP address

from your computer.

In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network

administrator to set this address for you.
