Finding IP addresses

An IP address is a unique number used by devices on an IP network to locate and communicate with each other. Devices on an IP network can only communicate with each other if they have unique and valid IP addresses. A unique IP address means no two devices on the same network have the same IP address.

How to locate a printer IP address

You can locate the printer IP address by printing out the printer network setup page. For more information, see “Printing a network setup page” on page 57.
