This section explains the procedure for setting a static IP address.

  3. Select General Settings > Network Settings.

  4. Select Standard or Additional for the network that you want to set up.

  5. Select Advanced > TCP/IP.

    Note:

    When you select Advanced, you need to enter the administrator password for the additional network.

  6. Select Manual for Obtain IP Address.

    When you set the IP address automatically by using the DHCP function of router, select Auto. In that case, the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway on step 7 to 8 are also set automatically, so go to step 9.

  7. Enter the IP address.

    When entering an IP Address, enter zeroes (0) to make three digits as shown in the following example.

    Example:

    • If the IP address is 192.0.2.111, enter 192.000.002.111.
    • If the IP address is 192.0.12.10, enter 192.000.012.010

    Confirm the value reflected on the previous screen. After the IP address is entered, the zeroes you entered to make three digiits are omitted.

  8. Set up the Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.

    Confirm the value reflected on the previous screen.
