Lexmark 6500 Series manual Printing a network setup, Direct IP printing

If you purchased the internal wireless print server separately, the MAC address appears on an adhesive label that came with the wireless print server. Attach the adhesive label to your printer so you will be able to find the MAC address when you need it.

UAA: XX XX XX XX XX XX

Note: A list of MAC addresses can be set on a router so that only devices with matching MAC addresses can be allowed to operate on the network. This is called MAC filtering. If MAC filtering is enabled in your router and you want to add a printer to your network, the MAC address of the printer must be included in the MAC filter list.
