Selecting this tab will allow configuration for the TCP/IP network protocol. The basic options
are:
• Dynamic IP Address (DHCP) - The IP address is obtained automatically, from a DHCP
Server on your network.
• Fixed IP Address - You must enter the IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address.
• IP Address - Select an unused IP address from the address range used on your LAN.
• Subnet Mask - Use the same values as PCs on your LAN (or on the same LAN
segment, if you have a Router).
• Gateway - Use the same values as PCs on your LAN (or on the same LAN segment, if
you have a Router).
Some Print Server models also support the Auto-IP function. If the Print Server is set to
Dynamic IP Address, but there's no DHCP server found on the network, the Print Server will
get an IP from the range of 169.254.1.1 ~ 169.254.254.254 automatically. In this case, even
though the Print Server was initialized with an Auto-IP, it will change to DHCP whenever a
DHCP server is detected.

The TCP session parameters should only be changed if advised to do so by your Network
Administrator or Print Server Technical Support.
