How do I connect the printer to my computer via wired LAN (Ethernet)? (for Mac)
- To use a static IP address to connect your printer to a wired LAN, install the printer driver and Printer Setting Tool (for macOS10.15 or earlier), and then specify the wired LAN connection settings.
- You cannot use the wireless and wired function at the same time. Before you use the wired function, turn off the wireless function.
- Use a straight-through Category 5 (or greater) twisted-pair cable for 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet Network.
- Connect the printer to the LAN port that is not subjected to overvoltage.
