If Set Using Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) is enabled, a private IP address is automatically assigned to the print server even when there are no DHCP servers on your system or your network.

If the Dynamic DNS function is not supported, we recommend that you select Manual and then enter an IP address. This is because if you select Auto, the IP address of the print server changes every time you turn on the printer so that you need to change the printer port setting accordingly.

5.To assign an IP address manually, enter the IP address, the subnet mask, and the default gateway. Be sure the IP address does not conflict with any other devices on the network.

Note:

If there is a server or a router functioning as a gateway, enter the IP address of the server or the router for the gateway address. If there is no gateway, leave the default values there.

6.If you want to get a private address between 169.254.1.1 and 169.254.254.254 automatically when an IP address cannot be obtained by the DHCP server, leave it at Enable for Set Using Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA); otherwise, select Disable.

7.When setting an IP address using the ping command, select

Enable for Set Using PING. Select Disable when setting an IP address with EpsonNet WinAssist/MacAssist/WebAssist; this prevents any unexpected change of the IP address.

Note:

Be sure to select Disable when not using ping; this prevents an unexpected change of the IP address by EpsonNet WebManager.

8.Select Enable for Acquire DNS Server Address Automatically if you want to acquire the DNS server address using the DHCP server.

If you want to enter the DNS server address manually, select Disable and then enter the IP address of the DNS server.
