Printer works fine but, in order to put our name as the sender on all faxes, I need to first establish the IP address through the Speed Dial Utility. These are the instructions of the manual. However, I am unable to obtain the IP address of the printer in order for me to perform the above steps.
Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated. This has been a fustrating process.
In advance, thanks for your help,
What operating system are you using and how are you setting the printer on a network? is it connected to a router? did you already download and run the net config utility?
if you are using windows visit this link and download the net config utlitlity

If you get a message about Additional Port Information Required, then the printer was not found using the host name. You can go back and retry or using the printer's IP address instead of the host name.
