HP LaserJet P2055dn and P2055x Printers - Manual IP Setting through Control Panel

 

There are 3 ways to configure the IP address: HP ToolboxFX, embedded Web server (EWS) and the control panel on P2050 series printers (P2055n/P2055x). The control panel can be used to manually and automatically configure the IP address. This document describes how to configure the IP address manually using the control panel.
