Note: The PS101 Print Server, by default, automatically obtains an IP address from the network. However, NETGEAR recommends you use a fixed IP address to be

able to use a Web browser to print a test page or to make configuration changes later. For a home or small office, use IP address information compatible with your router setup. The IP address for the print server needs to be unique in the network.

If you don’t know what to use, you may clickSuggest New Values to get a useable IP address. If you are using a NETGEAR router with default settings, the following

settings should work:

IP address: 192.168.0.150 (The first three numbers should match the numbers for the network device. Make sure the last 3 digits are unique on your network.)

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Gateway IP address: 192.168.0.1 (the address of your router)

3.When complete, click Finish.

4.When asked if you want to set up a printer right away, click Yes and continue to procedure 4: Confirgure a Computer To Access the Print Server. You have already completed the software installation and are running the NETGEAR Add Printer Wizard.
