4.4 Set the Ethernet IP Address of the Print Server
Two ways for the print server to obtain the IP Address:
Method 1: Use DHCP to obtain an IP address from the network
Method 2: Obtain an fixed IP Address
The advantage of the method 1 is very simple and time saving, however, the
disadvantage is that it is easy to forget the IP address and may assign a different IP
address for the print server, brings the IP Address conflict problem.
For method 2, can assign a fixed IP address to the print server according to the
current network environment, this method is more reliable and stable((highly
recommended)), the users need to know their own network attributes.
※Tips for how to get an fixed IP Address※
Click "Start Menu---Run",or use the WIN+R key combination to call the run
window, enter “cmd” in the run window, click OK (As Image 5 Shows).
