How to Check Your Computer's IP Address
An IP address is a logical address assigned by the IP protocol to identify devices on a network. It helps to standardize communication across different physical networks and allows devices to locate each other on the internet.
If you're trying to connect an OCOM network port printer to your LAN so that you can print from your computer, it's essential that both the computer and the printer are on the same network segment. For example, if your computer has an IP address of 192.168.0.5, but the printer’s IP is 192.168.1.100, they are not in the same network. In this case, you’ll need to adjust either the computer's or the printer's IP address to place them in the same subnet. Before changing the printer's IP, it might be necessary to first change your computer's IP address to match the printer’s network. This ensures the printer can receive the print commands properly.
To check the printer’s IP address, you can print its self-test page, which usually includes the current network settings. As for checking your computer's IP address, follow these steps:
First, open the Control Panel and navigate to "Network and Sharing Center." From there, click on "Change adapter settings" and select your active network connection. Right-click and choose "Properties," then double-click on "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" to view or modify your IP address.
By following these steps, you can ensure your computer and printer are on the same network, making it easier to establish a stable connection for printing. Always make sure to double-check the IP addresses after any changes to avoid connectivity issues.
