Once the printer has restarted the

icon will be displayed

signifying that an IP address has been obtained. Allow up to 90
seconds for the printer to retrieve an IP address.

At this point it is recommended to print a Network Report. This
Network Report is generated by the printer and lists important

default information such as the IP and MAC Addresses as well

as SSID for wireless connections. To print the ‘Network
Report’: Press the PAUSE, FEED, CANCEL buttons at the

same time.

Once the previous steps have been successfully completed you
may now use the IP Address to install a printer driver, and

start printing from your Windows applications. See section

B.3, Installing the Printer Driver.

The information on this label will vary depending
on your configuration and firmware version.


B.2.1 Wireless Setup – Ad-Hoc

After a successful setup is made via a wired connection, the Wireless connection (if equipped) can
now be configured in ad-hoc mode using a static IP address. To configure the wireless card in Ad-

hoc mode, you must configure your host computer to match the IP settings of the printer. Refer to

your operating system’s or your wireless network card documentation for information on how to
configure your computer.

1. Open your web browser. Type in the IP

Address of the printer. The Default IP is:
192.168.10.26.

If a different IP Address has been

assigned to the printer, make sure to

enter the correct IP address.

2. Click on the “Wireless Ethernet Settings” menu item on the left side of the screen. Locate and

set the following items:

Address, Printer Subnet Mask, and Printer Gateway.
