Assigning an IP Address (for IPv4 Mode)
NOTE:
• When you assign an IP address manually in IPv6 mode, use the CentreWare Internet Services. To display the CentreWare
Internet Services, use the link local address. To check a link local address, see "Printing and Checking the Printer Settings
Page" on page 77.
• Assigning an IP address is considered as an advanced function and is normally done by a system administrator.
• 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.
