Note About IP Addresses and Subnet Masks

If you don’t have a network administrator, you can assign IP addresses in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254. Each computer or other device connected directly to the network must have a unique IP number. The subnet mask should be 255.255.255.0. However, you should not use these addresses if your network has a direct (rather than dial-up) connection to the Internet.

Setting Up DLC

If you use Windows NT, the Ethernet card can work with the DLC (Data Link Control) support provided in your operating system. Follow the instructions below to install DLC support in Windows and configure the printer.
