Assigning a Static IP Address gives your printer a fixed network address, ensuring it doesn't change each time the device or router restarts. This allows the POS system to consistently detect the printer.
How to Assign a Static IP Address
1
Connect the Printer to the Internet
Connect the printer to the internet either via ethernet cable or via Wi-Fi. Verify that the blue light on the cloud icon is on to confirm internet connectivity.
At the back of the device, there is a button. Press it twice. This generates a receipt containing network information.
3
Go to the Device Page
On the Network Page that printed out, get the IP details.
It will be under [LAN] if you're using ethernet cable, and it will be under [Wi-Fi] if you're connected via Wi-Fi.
Type this IP address on a browser to access the device page.
The device you're using must also be connected to the same network.
4
Log In on the Page
Once you enter the IP address, you will be redirected to a page asking you to log in. Just click Log In.
Initial password is empty, you can log in directly.
5
Enter Network Information
From the Navigation Bar on the left, click on Ethernet if you're connected via ethernet cable or Wi-Fi if you're connected via Wi-Fi. Enter the details (IP, SubnetMask, GateWay) from the printed Network Page.
6
Carry Out Another Network Page Print from the Printer
Press the button at the back of the printer twice again to print out the network page. A section that says [LAN Fixed] or [Wi-Fi Fixed] would confirm that the printer has been assigned a fixed IP.
