You can print Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network.

Press the (Menu) button on the control panel and select Network > Network Conf. .

Using this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine’s MAC address and IP address.

For example:

First, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and managements. In most cases a new IP address will be automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located on the network.

IPv4 configuration

	You can also set the TCP/IPv4 from Embedded Web Server. When the Embedded Web Server window opens, move the mouse cursor over the Settings of the top menu bar and then click Network Settings (Settings tab).

If you have a DHCPv4 server on your network, you can set one of the following options for default dynamic host configuration.

1. Select (Menu)> Network > TCP/IP (IPv4) > DHCP on the control panel.

2. Press OK to select the required value you want.

IPv6 configuration

	IPv6 is supported properly only in Windows Vista or higher.

	You can also set the TCP/IPv6 from Embedded Web Server. When the Embedded Web Server window opens, move the mouse cursor over the Settings of the top menu bar and then click Network Settings (Settings tab).

The machine supports the following IPv6 addresses for network printing and managements.

• Link-local Address: Self-configured local IPv6 address (Address starts with FE80).

• Stateless Address: Automatically configured IPv6 address by a network router.

• Stateful Address: IPv6 address configured by a DHCPv6 server.

• Manual Address: Manually configured IPv6 address by a user.

In the IPv6 network environment, follow the next procedure to use the IPv6 address.

Activating IPv6

1. Press the (Menu) button on the control panel.

2. Press Network > TCP/IP (IPv6) > IPv6 Protocol

3. Select On and press OK.

4. Turn the machine off and turn it on again.

	When you install the printer driver, do not configure both IPv4 and IPv6. We recommend to configure either IPv4 or IPv6 (see Installing driver over the network).

DHCPv6 address configuration

If you have a DHCPv6 server on your network, you can set one of the following options for default dynamic host configuration.

1. Press the (Menu) button on the control panel.

2. Press Network > TCP/IP (IPv6) > DHCPv6 Config

3. Press OK to select the required value you want.
