	Wireless Ethernet Interface Configuration Using
	The Control Panel
WIRELESS	NOTE: The Access Point must be configured according to the
ADAPTER,	manufacturer's installation guide.
WIRELESS	To configure Wireless Ethernet Interface, configure the ethernet
	and wireless IP addresses so they can be seen on the network.
	This includes several network-related settings (e.g., an IP address
	within TCP/IP environments) configured through the built-in
	command shell, npsh, or from the control panel.
	IP Address Configuration
	You can set the wireless Ethernet Interface IP settings from the
	printer control panel.
CAUTION	When the printer is first powered on, the message
	“ETHERNET INITIALIZING” displays on the control panel. To
	prevent a loss of Ethernet Interface configuration information,
	do not change the Ethernet Interface settings while this
	message displays. When the initialization is complete,
	“ETHERNET IS READY” displays, and you can safely change
	the Ethernet Interface settings from the control panel.
	You need to set both the ethernet and wireless network IP
	addresses according to the TCP/IP environment that the printer is
	connected to. There are four parameters accessed from the printer
	control panel that are IP address related. These parameters are
	located in the "ETHERNET ADDRESS" menu and the "WIRELESS
	ADDRESS" menu:
	• IP Address
	This is the host for IP addresses that have four segments. They are
	displayed as SEG1, SEG2, SEG3, and SEG4 which can be set to
	any value in the range of 0 to 255.
