printers at a later time.
Example: When you enter IP address 10.255.109.10 in the
From field and IP address 10.255.109.50
in the
To field, the system searches for each IP address in that range, checks if the printer is available,
and then adds the printer to the search result. Printers with IP addresses between and including the
specified range are discovered.
Discovering Printers Using Subnet Mask
Discovering printers using Subnet Mask option allows you to discover printers using the subnet mask.
Subnet mask-based discovery is used where printers are sparsely distributed across a subnet.
To discover a printer using the subnet mask, perform the following steps:
1 In the SNMP Community Name field of the Discovery window, type a valid community name of the
printers to be discovered.
2 Select Subnet Mask.
