Troubleshooting
NOTE Configuring TCP/IP settings are complicated and should only be performed by
experienced network administrators. BOOTP will require a (PC, Unix, Linux, and so on) server
to configure specific TCP/IP settings for the product. DHCP will also require a server, but the
TCP/IP settings will not be fixed for the printer. Finally, the manual method to configure
specific TCP/IP settings can be done from the control panel or the embedded Web server. For
additional help or network configuration, contact your network provider.
