TCP/IP Configuration Overview
TCP/IP Configuration Overview
Setting the printer’s IP address
The Tektronix Installer for Windows automatically sets the printer’s IP address under the
following conditions:
■ The printer has a network connection.
■ TCP/IP is installed on the computer.
■ The IP address has not already been assigned (for example, from the front panel or by
DHCP).
During the installation process, you can accept the automatically assigned address or
assign a different one.
The Tektronix installer for Windows is the recommended method for setting IP address in
Windows environments; for other environments, see Setting the Printer’s IP Address on
page 22.
