Specifying an IP address (no DHCP)

Follow this procedure to assign a specific IP address to the printer. This is only necessary when you will use the printer on a network without DHCP, or want to prevent the printer's IP address from changing.

Before beginning, make sure that you know the IP address, subnet mask and gateway address that the printer will use.
