Wrong!!

You never need to repeat that process because your router should assign the same IP address again to that printer. Unless you got some router made in laos or cambodia.

i guess you never heard of "IP Address Reserve" inside DHCP Server setting do u?

But not everyone has one directly connected. Plus, you wouldn't need a network capable printer for that.

skinnygeek said:very easy. here's what you do. hook up the cat5 cable from the printer to your home 4 port cable/dsl router (assuming 80% of all home networking beginning with a 4/8 port cable/dsl router). after that, print out a configuration page and it will tell you what IP address has been assigned automatically to the printer.

go to each computer that you have at home and add a local printer (not network printer) and then add a TCP/IP port and then type in that IP address from the configuration page. then after that, print away....voila!

Only difference is that for Macs I guess one will have to find a compatible printer driver (i.e. postscript) as native Dell drives aren't supported on Macs.

ebaying for 5?%?%?

skinnygeek said:never need to define Static IP for printers? Do you ever work for any office and their printers aren't statically assigned?

OH My God! talking about ignorance.

Of course I do you pompous a@@. Most people here are dealing with their homes and you spout off a way to configure something assuming an office environment because you seem to like to hear yourself spout out network speak.


God help me if I ever had to deal with a network admin like you.

Thanks OP. In for one.

The coupon does not appear to take 50% off the extra toners. I guess I'll plan on refilling. By the time I need to do that, FW will be able to tell me how to do it.

1. Does it have a document feeder that will copy/scan/fax multiple pages automatically?

2. Is its toner cartridge designed like HP (change drum when toner cart is changed) or like cheapo/bad samsung/minolta that only changes toner, and after a few changes than the new drum would cost more the printer?

Thanks
