Connecting the Printer to Your Wireless Network

Connecting the Printer to Your Wireless Network

If you wish to use the printer’s optional wireless print server, you must first connect the printer to your computer using one of the other available connections. While the printer is connected via one of those connections, you 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 www.zebra.com/manuals.
  1. Configure the following printer settings. You can change the values through the Zebra Setup Utilities (click Configure Printer Connectivity on the Zebra Setup Utilities screen) or by the ways listed at the following links. Contact your network administrator for the proper values for your network.
    • IP Protocol (change the value from ALL to PERMANENT)
    • Gateway (match the gateway value of your WLAN)
    • Subnet Mask (match the subnet value of your WLAN)
    • IP Address (assign a unique IP address to the printer)
  2. Reset the network to allow changes to the network settings to take effect.
