4. Network Settings (for Network Models)

You may need to set some network parameters for the printer. These parameters can be set from the embedded Web server.

4.1. Installing the Printer onto the Network

In this setting, the printer is directly connected to the network and can be set to allow all
computers on the network to print directly from the printer.

1. Before turning on the printer, connect the network cable to the printer’s network port so that it is directly connected to the network.

2. Turn on the printer and wait for the status indicator on the control panel to display the Ready status, as shown below.

3. Insert the printer’s CD-ROM into your computer. If the installer software does not launch automatically , please browse to the “setup.exe” file on the CD-ROM, and then double-click to run the file.

4. Follow the operation instructions of the installer.

5. Continue to complete the installation.

| Note: | • When the installer prompts you to select a printer, you can select the appropriate printer name from the Detected Printer list; • If the printer name does not appear in the Detected Printer list, please click Refresh and search again for printers on the network;

• If you know the IP address of the printer to be connected, you can select “Specify an IP Address for Installation” to enter the IP address to enable connection.

4.2. Setting Network Products

4.2.1. Viewing or Changing Network Settings

Web server.

3. Click the tab to obtain network information. Change the settings as needed.

4.2.2. Setting or Changing the Login Password of a Web Page

Use the embedded Web server to set a network password or change the existing password.

4.2.3. IP Address

The printer’s IP address can be automatically set through the DHCP function and can also be set manually.

| Automatic Setting

The DHCP automatic setting function is enabled by default.

1. Connect the printer to the network via a network cable and complete the startup preparation work;

2. The printer will automatically obtain the IP address assigned by the server which can be used after a few seconds.

| Note: | • If DHCP cannot automatically obtain an IP address, the printer will automatically use the default IP address: 169.254.1.1. • Due to the characteristics of DHCP, if the printer is not used for a long time or if the network access point is changed, the IP address assigned to the printer automatically by the network may change, resulting in the printer can not be connected; therefore, it is recommended to enable the DHCP function and bind the IP address assigned automatically by the network with the MAC address of the printer.

| Manual Setting

Type the IP address into the Web browser’s address line to open the embedded Web server.

1. Click Settings in the navigation bar to open the Settings interface;

2. Select Network Settings - IPV4 Settings;

3. Successively set the IP Address Assignment Mode (Manual), IP Address and Subnet Mask. Other items are optional;

4. Click Apply to save the settings.

| Note: | • You can use the embedded Web server to change the IP Address Assignment Mode to Automatic or Manual. • If you want to reset all settings of the printer, you can restore the factory settings. This can be obtained by pressing down the button on the control panel
(as shown below), power on the printer when it is powered off, and then releasing the button after 2-3 seconds. The reset is completed after the printer enters the ready status.
