2 Connectivity and software instructions

Connection method

Your printer can be connected in the following way.

Connection type Speed Maximum cable length Other factors

Gigabit Ethernet Fast; varies according to

network traffic

Long (100 m=328 ft) Requires extra equipment

(switches)

NOTE: The speed of any network connection depends on all the components that are used in the

network, which can include network interface cards, hubs, routers, switches, and cables. If any one of

these components cannot operate at high speed, you will have a low-speed connection. The speed of

your network connection can also be affected by the total amount of traffic from other devices on the

network.

Connect to a network

Before you begin, check your equipment:

●

The printer should be set up and turned on.

●

The Gigabit switch or router should be on and functioning correctly.

●

All computers on the network should be turned on and connected to the network.

●

The printer should be connected to the switch.

When the printer is connected to the network and turned on, you should see the printer's IP address

appear on the front panel (192.168.1.1 in this example). Make a note of the IP address: you can use it

later to access the Embedded Web Server.

If you see this screen without the IP address, either the printer is not successfully connected to the

network, or your network has no DHCP server. In the latter case, you will have to set the IP address

manually: see the Maintenance and troubleshooting guide.

Refer to the RIP instructions (not provided by HP) to install the software RIP.
