When configuring an address for the printer, the IP configuration might look like (just an example):
IP Address - 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1
It's important to note that even though you are not using any IP addresses in the default range for DHCP, the Subnet Mask and Default Gateway addresses will be THE SAME.
If you have another device on your network that will be assign a fixed address, you would use for example:
IP Address - 192.168.1.3
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1
For any other devices, just increment the IP address by one, 192.168.1.4, 192.168.1.5, etc and use the same Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.
First find
out the IP address , Subnet mask,and Gateway addresses of your ISP ( Internet
Service Provider ). According to above addresses, you have to complete the network
settings of your printer by mentioning the different IP address .
To find out the above mentioned
addresses, first open the control panel -> network connections -> local area
connction -> properties -> Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPV4) OR
Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPV6)according to your ISP -> Properties
By the systematic selection as
mentioned above you will get the IP address, subnet mask and Gateway addresses.
Suppose your IP address is 192.168.0.10 , the
gateway may be 192.168.0.1 Or any number. And the subnet mask may be
XYY.XYY.XYY.0.
According
to your ISP addresses you have to complete the network settings of your
printer. First press the additional functions -> system settings ->
network settings -> TCP/IP settings -> fill up the addresses as follows.
IP address : 192.168.0.16 OR any number .
subnet mask : XYY.XYY.XYY.0.
Gateway : 192.168.0.1
Hurray ! the problem about your network connection with the printer to your computer will be automatically solved.
