How to set a Static IP Address to a HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m?

Like it says up in the subject, I need to know how to do this. I tried to do it by typing in the IP of the printer into a browser, but then I lost connectivity with it all together. If someone could help, that would be amazing!!
Thanks in advance!

First, let's see if your printer is actually connected to your network.
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.  If it is 0.0.0.0 or 169.254.x.x then the printer is not connected.  You will have to re-connect it using the same method you did originally.
Now that it is connected, this is how to set a static IP:
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings. (if this does not work, you likely have a firewall and/or security system blocking it - please advise).
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address). If you do not know this, enter the current IP address.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Leave the gateway and DNS blank. Click 'Apply'
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

  • How to set a static IP address for deskjet 6940dt

    I have two HP laptops, both have WIN7, that keep losing the IP address for my 6940dt printer, each time power goes out to router.  I have an desktop PC connected to a NetGear router and RCA modem connected to Comcast cable internet.  I also have another desktop that connects wirelessly through the router....but this desktop never loses the printer IP address and I can't figure out why it doesn't and my laptops do. 
    I have had a fellow at the senior center computer club tell me that I need to set a Static IP address to make the laptops connect .  I don't know how to do this and I would need someone to explain it in a language that I can understand, like real basic.  I have searched the internet but the things I have found have been very complicated to understand. 
    Can anyone help me?
    This question was solved.

    Ooops, sorry, I forgot that yours is a wired-only network printer.
    You are on the right track - just go to where you were and follow my directions - it all works the same with wired as it does wireless.

  • How to set a static IP address on a Mac server?

    I am setting up a New Mac server for a mail sever and have resieved the MX record and IP address from the ISP and DNS providers. Now I am trying to set up the server to be seen on the out side, or even on the network. Is this all done in the Network confiruration by maually setting the IP and Sub Mask there? I have set it all up to what I think they should be but not having any luck. When I installed the server software I told it to be a stand alone server was that wrong. I will not be running DNS or any other services on this system only Mail.
    thanks

    You should enter the IP address/netmask, etc. during the first-time-boot setup. Changing it later can be a PITA, but it sounds like you did that.
    Setting 'standalone' shouldn't be an issue since that only relates to directory services.
    It sounds like the problem is a more basic connectivity issue.
    Have you verified that you have basic IP address connectivity? Can you ping the router address provided by your ISP? Can you ping remote sites outside your network? If that's not working you're not going to get much further.

  • PowerShell script to set VM static IP address - multiple subscriptions

    Hi,
    I have set successfully static IP Address to all of my virtual machines until now (1 subscription) using Set-AzureStaticVNetIP
    But now I have 2 Azure subscriptions. The virtual networks names are the same at both of the suscriptions.
    The question is:
    How to define the subscription to use when defining static IP addresses to VMs?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi SCCMadmin09,
    Considering that you have successfully set static IP Address to all of your virtual machines until now for one of the subscriptions :
    Login to your Azure account with the command ; this time you should be entering your second subscription login credentials.
    Add-AzureAccount
      Add-AzureAccount
      :    This will open a windows login dialog that will allow you to enter your credentials of the second subscription.
      Now you need to find the name of the subscription you created your virtual machines under. The command is:
    Get-AzureSubscription
    The output will give the Azure subscription information
    Here in the example, Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN a/c is used. The command to select this is:
    Select-AzureSubscription 
    : Select Azure Subscription: Enter your subscription name and then ENTER:
    Eg : Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN
     At this point you are connected to your subscription and can begin to work with the virtual machines created under it.
    There are two parameters you will need to have:
    ServiceName
    = the name of your virtual machine. Example :
    DTechHST-Test01
    Name
    = the same name you entered as the ServiceName
    And finally the commands, there are three.
    Get-AzureVM -ServiceName <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name>
     Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "<your_new_ip_address>"
     Update-AzureVM
     Unfortunately, entering these commands one at a time fails. They must be strung together via “pipes”.
    Get-AzureVM -ServiceName <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name> | Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "<your_new_ip_address>"
    | Update-AzureVM
     As an example:
    Get-AzureVM -ServiceName HST-Test01 -Name HST-Test01 | Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "192.168.224.50"
    | Update-AzureVM
     In the event that you need to remove an assigned IP address, use the following command structure.
    Get-AzureVM -ServiceName 
    <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name> | Remove-AzureStaticVNetIP | Update-AzureVM
    Hope this helps.

  • How to set and static ip_address for a Suse Linux box

    Hi.
    I've done the following to set an static ip address for my Suse 9 Linux box:
    - Take not of inet address value from ifconfig command. ie: (172.17.2.14)
    - Change this value in /etc/hosts for my linux box.
    Since Suse is configure by default to use DHCP for assigning dinamic ip_addresses i'm not sure whether will lastly be set as a static address. I've rebooted my box and it seems to be OK.
    Thanks in advance ...!

    /etc/hosts is not configuration file for ethernet interfaces.
    Configuration files for ethernet interfaces are stored in /etc/sysconfig/network directory.
    For example if you have eth0 device then configuretion for this device is stored in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 file.
    Important directives:
    DEVICE - interface (eth0)
    IPADDR - IP address of interface
    NETMASK - netmask
    BOOTPROTO - "static" for static configuration, dhcp for dynamic configuration via dhcp
    ONBOOT - activating interface during boot (yes/no) (yes - of course :-) )
    GATEWAY - default gateway
    So for example you want setup static IP (192.168.10.1 / 255.255.225.0) for eth0 interface.
    Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 file and your configuration should be:
    DEVICE=eth0
    IPADDR=192.168.10.1
    NETMASK=255.255.255.0
    BOOTPROTO=static
    ONBOOT=yesThen you simply restart the nework using:
    /etc/init.d/network restartOR
    /sbin/ifdown eth0
    /sbinf/ifup eth0 OR
    ifconfig eth0 down
    ifconfig eth0 up

  • Setting up Static IP addresses

    In the FAQ entry for setting up static IP addresses, it says to set the "Preferred DNS server" to: 192.168.1.1
    Currently, mine is set to: 68.94.156.1
    with an Alternate DNS Server of: 68.94.157.1
    Now, I'm wondering, does the Prefered DNS [i]have[/i] to be 192.168.1.1 or will what I currently have work just as well? Also, am I supposed to have an Alternate DNS server, and if so, is what I currently have it set to fine? Lastly, do the DNS servers have to be different for each computer?
    Any help would be great. I'm hoping to try and re-setup my router tonight.

    Kind of off topic, but don't want to make a whole new thread...
    Currently, my home network is very messed up. Previously, we would lose connections upwards of 4 times a day.
    At first, we thought it was because our modem was getting old. So my dad bought a new modem. But when he finished hooking up the modem, we still couldn't connect to the net, so he plugged his comp directly into the modem instead.
    Now, in an attempt to get things working, I have reconnected the router, modem and computers to eachother. However, there is a problem. I can't access the router's setup page from my computer anymore. The lights on the router and modem indicate that:
    1. The modem is connected the net.
    2. The router is connected to the modem.
    3. 3 devices are plugged into the router.
    Now, I have two wired comps, 1 x-box and a wirless comp. and I am using the WRT54G router. I don't understand why this computer cannot connect to the router. I know it is just this comp, because the wireless one can access the router's setup page, although it still can't connect to the net.
    Could someone give me an idea as to what the problem is? The only thing I can think of is, maybe instead of running a cable from the router to the computer, I ran it from the printer to the computer (they are right next to eachother). But don't think printers even use ethernet cables.

  • How to set a static IP on wrt1900ac

    I am trying to set some static ip addresses on my new router  I go to the advanced routing section and put in the info but when i get to the gateway it says the specified gateway ip is invalid.

    If the ISP modem has a built in router, it's best to bridge the modem. Having 2 routers on the same line can cause connection problems: Link>http://www.practicallynetworked.com/networking/fixing_double_nat.htm and http://computer.howstuffworks.com/nat.htm If the modem can't be bridged then see if the modem has a DMZ option and input the IP address the router gets from the modem and put that into the modems DMZ. Also check the routers DHCP IP address maybe conflicting with the ISP modems IP address of 192.168.1.1. Check to see if this is the same on the ISP modem, and if modem can't be bridged, change the Linksys router to 192.168.0.1 or .0.254. If your trying to set Static IPs on the LAN side then Static IPs are configured on each devices thats connected. This can be done for devices lilke printers, controllers cameras and NAS. This should be done outside of the routers default DHCP IP address pool. Other devcies like PCs phones, Pads or game consoles that need router management, then it's recommended to set a Reserved IP address ON the router for these devcies.  For WAN side or ISP side Static IP services:http://community.linksys.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/WRT1900AC-WPA2-on-Guest-Network-and-Setting-Domain-Name/m-p/960821#M305633 

  • How to setup a static ip address and DNS on airport extreme using the iOS Airport Utility?

    I am at a location that only has wired ethernet.  The ethernet connection has a specific  Static IP address, subnet, gateway, and DNS setting.  I cannot seem to find how to enter DNS settings using the Apple Utility on an iPad. HELP!!!

    First, I am assuming that you are trying to administer your AirPort base station for a static IP address using the iOS version of the AirPort Utility ... correct?
    If so, then to do so:
    Start the AirPort Utility app on the iPad
    Select your base station.
    Select Edit
    Select Internet Connection
    Select Static
    Enter the appropriate IP address information
    Select Done
    Sorry, it does not appear that direct input for DNS IP addresses is an available option with this version of the iOS AirPort Utility app. Not sure why this was not included.

  • How do I assign static ip address on time capsule

    I want to assign static ip addresses to certain devices in my home but not sure how to do it through the iMac and Air Port/time capsule

    Not sure as I don't own an Apple router but on mosdt modern routers there is a way to set, that is SET, a constant IP for devices by their MAC address, that is Mac, Media Access Control address not Mac computer.
    I would think Apple has included that feature in their Airport routers.

  • How to route Multiple static IP addresses

    I have 5 static public IP addresses from Comcast Business. I need to host 3 low-volume web sites with distinct domain names which map to unique public IP addresses. I have all three web sites on one computer.
    Linksys has told me it can be done (but has NO useful support); and Comcast has told me it can be done. I've searched high & low on forums for a solution but can't find one.
    Equipment: 
       Linksys WRT300N router
       Webserver is Windows 2003 with 3 NIC cards
       Cable Modem is an SMC 8014
       Cable Provider: Comcast Businesss
    I already have the router set up for a Static IP and have entered my first public IP address, cable modem gateway and DNS servers. I have also port-forwarded port 80 to the web server.  One web site works fine.
    My question is: How can I route the other 4 ip addresses to the web server?
    TIA,
    bert

    If you already have set up the forwarding and it does not work for those other IP addresses, then it can't be done with your router. You'll need a router which supports one-to-one nat which allows you to map multiple public IP addresses to LAN IP addresses.
