Setting the IP Address

Assigning an IP Address

An IP address is a unique number that consists of four sections that are delimited by a period and can include up to

three digits in each section, for example, 111.222.33.44.
You can select the IP mode from Dual Stack and IPv4. If your network supports both IPv4 and IPv6, select Dual

Stack.

CAUTION:

Assigning an IP address that is already in use can cause network performance issues.

NOTE:

Assigning an IP address is considered as an advanced function and is normally done by a system administrator.

NOTE:

When you assign an IP address manually in IPv6 Mode, use the Dell™ Printer Configuration Web Tool. To open the Dell

Printer Configuration Web Tool, use the link local address. To check a link local address, see "Verifying the IP Settings" on

page 55.

NOTE:

Depending on the address class, the range of the IP address assigned may be different. On Class A, for example, an IP

address in the range from

0.0.0.0

to

127.255.255.255

will be assigned. For assignment of IP addresses, contact

your system administrator.

You can assign the IP address by using the operator panel or using the Tool Box.
