Overview
This guide is designed for a system administrator with network administrator rights who understands
networking concepts and has experience creating and managing network user accounts.
Use this guide to help you install, configure, and manage your printer on a network.
Note:
• Network features are not available when the printer is connected using USB.
• Embedded fax features are not available for all printer models.

When you configure the device for the first time, complete the following tasks.
1. Ensure that your device is connected physically to your network, and to the fax line, as needed.
2. Confirm that your device is recognized on your network. By default, the device is configured to
receive an IP address from a DHCP server over a TCP/IP network. If you have another type of
network, or want to assign a static IP address, refer to IP.
3. Complete the installation wizards. These wizards help you configure basic device settings such as
your location, time zone, and date and time preferences.
4. Print a configuration report listing the current device configuration. Review the report and locate
the device IPv4 address. For details, refer to Configuration Report.
5. Open a Web browser and type the IP address of your device to access the Embedded Web Server.
The Embedded Web Server is the administration and configuration software installed on the
device. For details, refer to Accessing the Embedded Web Server.
Note: You can access most configuration settings on the Properties tab in the Embedded
Web Server.
6. Print the Configuration Checklist. The Configuration Checklist provides space for you to write
down important information as you go through the configuration process. Use it to record
information about your network settings, including passwords, network paths, and server
addresses. To access the checklist, in the Embedded Web Server, click Properties > Configuration
Overview, then click View Checklist.
7. Create a host name for the device. For details, refer to DNS.
8. Configure Authentication. For details, refer to Setting Access Rights.
9. Configure Security. For details, refer to Security.

Assigning a Network Address
The printer automatically acquires a network address from a DHCP server by default.
To assign a static IP address, configure DNS server settings, or configure other TCP/IP settings, refer
to IP.
If the printer does not detect a DHCP server, the printer uses an IPv4 self-assigned address. Address
information is listed on the configuration report. For details, refer to Configuration Report.
