Connecting the Printer to Your Wireless Network

If you wish to use the printer’s optional wireless print server, you may need to configure the printer to communicate with your Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) through the wireless print server.
For additional information about Zebra print servers, refer to the ZebraNet Wired and Wireless Print Server User Guide. To download the latest version of this guide, go to zebra.com/manuals.
  1. If necessary, specify the ESSID value that matches the value used by your wireless router. Check with your network administrator for the ESSID value to use. See ESSID for ways to change the value.
  2. If necessary, configure the following printer settings. Contact your network administrator for the proper values for your network.
    • Gateway—Match the gateway value of your LAN.
    • Subnet—Match the subnet value of your LAN.
  3. Reset the network (see Reset Network) to allow changes to the network settings to take effect.
  4. If the printer still does not connect, consider setting a static IP address by configuring the following additional settings, and then reset the network again. Contact your network administrator for the proper values for your network.
    • IP Protocol—Change the value from ALL to PERMANENT.
    • IP Address—Assign a unique IP address to the printer.
