Connect Tablet/PC (LAN)

Connect the printer and a tablet or PC, and set a static IP address to the printer.

Once a static IP address is assigned, the IP address will not be changed due to the DHCP server, so the specified connection destination device can be used continuously once set.

It is convenient to use the dedicated app when setting a connection with a tablet or PC.
For details, refer to Use App.

Follow the procedure below to perform setup.
