■Manually Setting the Printer’s IP Address on page 2-7
TCP/IP and IP Addresses
If your computer is on a large network, contact your network administrator for the appropriate 
TCP/IP addresses and additional configuration information. 
If you are creating your own small Local Area Network or connecting the printer directly to 
your computer using Ethernet, follow the procedure for automatically setting the printer’s 
Internet Protocol (IP) address. 
PCs and printers primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network. 
With TCP/IP protocols, each printer and computer must have a unique IP address. It is 
important that the addresses are similar, but not the same; only the last digit needs to be 
different. For example, your printer can have the address 192.168.1.2 while your computer has 
the address 192.168.1.3. Another device can have the address 192.168.1.4.
Generally, Macintosh computers use either TCP/IP or the EtherTalk protocol to talk to a 
networked printer. For Mac OS X systems, TCP/IP is preferred. Unlike TCP/IP, however, 
EtherTalk does not require printers or computers to have IP addresses.
Many networks have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server 
automatically programs an IP address into every PC and printer on the network that is 
configured to use DHCP. A DHCP server is built into most cable and DSL routers. If you use a 
cable or DSL router, see your router’s documentation for information on IP addressing.

Automatically Setting the Printer’s IP Address
If the printer is connected to a small established TCP/IP network without a DHCP server, use 
the installer on the Software and Documentation CD-ROM to detect or assign an IP address to 
your printer. For further instructions, insert the Software and Documentation CD-ROM into 
your computer’s CD-ROM drive. After the Xerox Installer launches, follow the prompts for 
installation. 
Note:For the automatic installer to function, the printer must be connected to an established 
TCP/IP network.
Dynamic Methods of Setting the Printer’s IP Address
There are two protocols available for dynamically setting the printer’s IP address: 
■DHCP (enabled by default on all Phaser printers)
■AutoIP
You can turn on/off both protocols using the control panel, or use CentreWare IS to turn on/off 
DHCP.
Note:You can view the printer’s IP address at any time. On the control panel, select 
Information, press the OK button, select Printer Identification, and then press the OK 
button.
Using the Control Panel
To turn on/off either the DHCP or AutoIP protocol:
1.On the control panel, select 
Printer Setup, and then press the OK button.
2.Select 
Connection Setup, and then press the OK button.
3.Select 
Network Setup, and then press the OK button.
4.Select 
TCP/IP Setup, and then press the OK button.
5.Select 
DHCP/BOOTP or AutoIP.
6.Press the OK button to turn the selection 
On or Off.
Using CentreWare IS
To turn on/off the DHCP protocol:
1.Launch your web browser.
2.Enter the printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
3.Select Properties.
4.Select the Protocols folder on the left navigation panel.
5.Select TCP/IP.
6.In the BOOTP/DHCP Settings section, set the BOOTP/DHCP option to On or Off.
7.Click the Save Changes button.

Manually Setting the Printer’s IP Address
Note:Verify that your computer has a properly configured IP address for your network. 
Contact your network administrator for more information.
If you are on a network without a DHCP server, or in an environment where the network 
administrator assigns printer IP addresses, you can use this method to manually set the IP 
address. Manually setting the IP address overrides DHCP and AutoIP. Alternatively, if you are 
in a small office with a single PC and use a dialup modem connection, you can manually set 
the IP address.
To manually set the IP address:
1.On the control panel, select 
Printer Setup, and then press the OK button.
2.Select 
Connection Setup, and then press the OK button.
3.Select 
Network Setup, and then press the OK button.
4.Select 
TCP/IP Setup, and then press the OK button.
5.Select 
DHCP/BOOTP, and then press the OK button to select Off.
6.Select 
TCP/IP Address, and then press the OK button.
7.Enter the printer’s IP address, and then press the OK button.
Information Required for Manual IP Addressing
Information Comments
Internet Protocol (IP) address of the printer Format is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx represents 
a decimal number from 0–255.
Network Mask If you are unsure, leave this blank; the printer 
chooses an appropriate mask.
Default Router/Gateway address Router address is required to communicate with 
the host device from anywhere other than the 
local network segment.

Changing or Modifying the IP Address Using CentreWare IS
CentreWare IS provides a simple interface that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor 
networked printers from your desktop using an embedded web server. For complete 
information about CentreWare IS, click the Help button in CentreWare IS to go to the 
CentreWare IS Online Help.
After setting the printer’s IP address, you can modify TCP/IP settings using CentreWare IS. 
1.Launch your web browser.
2.Enter the printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). 
3.Click Properties. 
4.Select the Protocols folder on the left sidebar. 
5.Select TCP/IP.
6.Enter or modify the settings, and then click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.
