Network setup_ 37
1. Press Menu on the control panel.
2. Press the up/down arrow to highlight Information and press OK.
3. Press the up/down arrow to highlight Configuration and press OK.
The machine prints the Configuration Report.
Using this Configuration Report, you can find your machine MAC address
and IP address.
For example:
• MAC Address: 00:15:99:41:A2:78
• IP Address: 192.0.0.192
Setting IPv4 address
You must set up an IPv4 address for network printing and management. In
most cases a new IP address will be automatically assigned by a DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located on the network.
If you use IPv6 address, refer to "IPv6 Configuration" on page 40
In a few situations the IP address must be set manually. This is called a
static IP and is often required in 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 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.
• Static IP assignment: Use the SetIP program to change the IP address
from your computer. If your machine has a control panel, you can also
change the IP address using the machine's control panel.
In an office environment, we recommend that you contact a network admin-
istrator to set this address for you.

A MAC address is a hardware serial number of the machine’s
network interface and can be found in the Configuration
Report.
