- If <Off> is selected, change the setting to <On>.
4-A-4. Select <Apply>.
NOTE
- IP addresses assigned via DHCP override the address obtained via Auto IP.

IMPORTANT
Checking whether the settings are correct
- Make sure that the Remote UI screen can be displayed with your computer. If a computer is not available, you can check the connection by using the operation panel.
When you have changed the IP address after installing the printer driver
- When the MFNP port is used, the connection is maintained as long as the machine and the computer belong to the same subnet; therefore, you do not need to add a new port. When the standard TCP/IP port is used, you need to add a new port.
*If you do not know which port is used, see the "User's Guide" from the Canon website (canon.com/oip-manual).
