Setting the IP Address

NOTE: The images used and procedures described in this manual are those of

Dell™ 2150cn Color Printer.

Assigning an IP Address

An IP address is a unique number that consists of four sections that are delimited by a period and can include up to three digits in each section, for example,

111.222.33.44.

You can select the IP mode from Dual Stack, IPv4, and IPv6. If your network supports both IPv4 and IPv6, select Dual Stack.

Select the IP mode of your environment, and then set IP address, subnet mask (for IPv4 only), and gateway address.

NOTICE: Assigning an IP address that is already in use can cause network

performance issues.

NOTE: Assigning an IP address is considered as an advanced function and is

normally done by a system administrator.

Disabling Firewall Before Installing Printer Software

NOTE: This step is necessary if you have Windows XP Service Pack 2 or 3

installed.

If your printer is connected directly to a network, and the Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows 7 firewall is enabled, you cannot view your networked printer(s) when you run the Dell printer installation software. To prevent this situation, disable this firewall before you install the Dell printer software. To disable or enable your Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows 7 firewall, perform the following steps.
