Solution
To acquire the printer IP address, reconnect the printer to the network. When the network connection is re-established the printer will automatically acquire an IP address. For a static IP connection, the printer recalls the last IP address that was set and restore it once the connection is established.
This is applicable for both a wired and wireless connection;
- For printers connected via Ethernet cable, reattach the cable to the printer.
- For printers connected wirelessly, make sure that the wireless router/switch/access point is powered ON and the wireless printer is configured to connect to the wireless network.
