Dynamic TCP/IP Address Assignment (DHCP/BOOTP/RARP)
Before You Start
Verify the Ethernet connection is complete and the desired speed is set. Then return to this page.
NOTE: By default, DHCP is enabled on the printer.
DHCP/BOOTP/RARP servers vary in the information that they return to the device requesting service.

Your printer can retrieve the following values from DHCP, BOOTP and RARP servers:
TCP/IP Address Host Name (DHCP) Subnet Mask Gateway TCP/IP Address Broadcast Address (DHCP) Domain Name (DHCP only)
Preferred and Alternate DNS Server (DHCP) Wins Server (DHCP)
