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.

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.

When you assign an IP address manually in IPv6 Mode, use the Dell™ Printer Configuration Web Tool. To open the Dell
Printer Configuration Web Tool, use the link local address. To check a link local address, see "Verifying the IP Settings" on
