•If your network operates under Simple Addressing or Exception DHCP policies described in Chapter 2, it is recommended to select ‘Use IP Address’ to identify your computer.

•If your network operates under Regular DHCP or Full DHCP policies described in Chapter 2, it is recommended to select ‘Use Host Name’ to identify your computer.

•After making your selection, click OK.

The following table summarizes the recommended choices depending on the policy in force on your network.

POLICY	THE SCANNER ADDRESS	THE COMPUTER ADDRESS
1) Simple addressing	Use IP address	Use IP address
2) Regular DHCP	Use IP address	Use Host Name
3) Full DHCP	Use Host Name	Use Host Name
4) Exception DHCP	Use Host Name	Use IP address

Note: Periodically, after the setup wizard runs, the addressing methods selected will not match this table. This is generally not a problem, but if you have trouble using the ‘Scan to Desktop’ profiles, set up the addresses manually to correct the problem.

•After entering the IP Address or Host Name on the Properties for Scanner screen, click OK. The process settings take effect immediately.
