    There are three methods for setting the IP address.
    If you changed the IP address of the printer after installing the printer driver, reset the port to be used for the printer driver. [After Changing the IP Address (Changing the Port) (Only for the Network Model)]
    IMPORTANT
    For a 64-bit Operating System or Windows Server 2008
    • Depending on the version, NetSpot Device Installer in the supplied CD-ROM does not support a 64-bit operating system or Windows Server 2008. For details on the latest NetSpot Device Installer, see the Canon website.

    Setting the IP Address Using NetSpot Device Installer
    IMPORTANT
    If Windows Firewall is enabled
    • It is recommended that you set the IP address using the ARP/PING command.
    • If you want to set the IP address using NetSpot Device Installer, you need to add "NetSpot Device Installer" to Windows Firewall in advance. Perform either of the following procedures.
    - Adding "NetSpot Device Installer" to the [Exceptions] sheet in the [Windows Firewall] dialog box (For details on the procedure for adding "NetSpot Device Installer", see Readme of NetSpot Device Installer by clicking [ ] in [NetSpot Device Installer for TCP/IP] in the [Additional Software Programs] screen in CD-ROM Setup.)
    - Installing NetSpot Device Installer (You can add it to Windows Firewall during the installation.)
