To check the IP address of the printer, obtain the IP address by printing a
network configuration page. Touch (right arrow), select Setup, select Network,
and then select Print Network Settings.
• Ping the printer using the IP address from the command prompt (Windows) or
from Network Utility (Mac OS X). (Network Utility is located in the Utilities folder
in the Applications folder at the top level of the hard disk.).
For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123, type the following at the
command prompt (Windows):
C:\Ping 123.123.123.123
– Or –
In Network Utility (Mac OS X), click the Ping tab, type the 123.123.123.123 in the
box, and then click Ping.
If a reply appears, the IP address is correct. If a time-out response appears, the
IP address is incorrect.
