Configure network settings
You can view and configure the network settings from the Embedded Web Server, the HP Utility or the
front panel.
To do so with the Embedded Web Server, select the Setup tab, then Networking.
With the HP Utility under Windows, select the Settings tab, then Network Settings. Under Mac
OS, select Configuration > Network Settings.
The following settings are available.
● IP Configuration method: Specify the way to set an IP address, selecting BOOTP, DHCP,
Auto IP or Manual.
● Host name: Specify the IP name of the printer. The name may contain up to 32 ASCII
characters.
● IP address: Specify the IP address of the printer. Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP network
will cause communication to fail.
TIP: Make sure that the combination of IP address, subnet mask and default gateway is valid. If
these three fields are inconsistent, you may not be able to connect to the printer at all until you fix
the problem from the front panel.
TIP: If you change the current IP address and click Apply, the browser loses the current
connection to the printer because it is pointing to the old address. To reconnect, browse to the
new IP address.
● Subnet mask: Specify a subnet mask, which determines which bits specify the network and
which bits uniquely specify the node within the network.
● Default gateway: Specify the IP address of a router or computer that is used to connect to
other networks or sub-networks. If none exist, use the IP address of the computer or the IP address
of the printer.
● Domain name: Specify the name of the DNS domain in which the printer resides (for example,
support.hp.com).
NOTE: The domain name does not include the host name: it is not the fully qualified domain
name, such as printer1.support.hp.com.
● Idle timeout: Specify the time that an idle connection is allowed to remain open when a remote
computer is waiting for the printer. The default value is 280 seconds. If set to zero, the timeout is
disabled and the connection is allowed to remain open indefinitely.
● Default IP: Specify the IP address to use when the printer is unable to obtain an IP address from
the network when powered on or when reconfigured to use BOOTP or DHCP.
● Send DHCP requests: Specify whether DHCP requests are transmitted when a legacy default IP
address or a default Auto IP is assigned.
