Is your printer connected to your computer via USB cord or a network cable Also, does your computer have drivers for your printer.By DrFaulken January 10, 2011 How to Reset Your Samsung Printer IP Address via SetIP I love Samsung laser printers.I have had two over the last decade or so, and they are super reliable and very affordable.
Find Address For Samsung Printer Drivers For YourI currently have a ML-2851 networked monochrome printer, and it has been great. I gave the printer a static IP address on my home network, and everyone can print to it. Back in the old days, I had to keep whatever computer the printer was attached to powered up all the time. So, I moved recently, and switched my Internet providers from Verizon to Charter. The cable modem that Charter provided used a different range of internal IP addresses. Verizon used 192.168.1. Charter used 192.168. This caused a chicken and the egg problem: I couldnt configure my printer because it had an address different from the rest of my computers in the house. I could reconfigure my cable modem router from Charter to use 192.168.1. I went to Samsungs site, and after some creative searching I found a little utility called SetIP that does the trick. Instructions Connect your printer to any computer using a USB cord. Note that youll need a Type AB cable to do this, the one with a regular USB connector on one end, and a square USB connector on the other end.

Its a bitch to find, and there is no description as to what this program does other than its name.

Click the Setup button: Configure the SetIP program like this: The upper part of the program has your printers name and machine (MAC) address. ![]() In most cases, it will be going from 192.168. Subnet mask: in most cases you wont need to change this. Default Gateway: you will need to change this to be your NEW routers gateway. Click the apply button. Click OK. Youre done The program is super easy to use, and if you have a lot of devices in your house in use its faster than changing the router and disrupting everything else. While I did not write this program nor do I represent Samsung in any way, please let me know if you have problems and Ill do my best to help. Good luck. January 26, 2011 at 12:15 am Hello: I have found your blog extremely useful though regret that I cannot seem to apply your findings to my situation.
