Using Host Names with the Domain Name Service (DNS)

The printer supports DNS through an embedded DNS resolver. The DNS resolver protocol communicates with one or more DNS servers to resolve the IP address for a given host name or the host name for a given IP address.

To use an IP host name for the printer, the system administrator must configure one or more DNS servers and a local DNS domain name space database. To set up the printer for DNS, supply a maximum of two DNS name server IP addresses.

Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS)

The printer supports Dynamic DNS through DHCP. You must have DHCP enabled on the printer for DDNS to function. Your network’s DHCP server must also support Dynamic DNS updates through option 12 or option 81 support. See your network administrator for details.
