I. If you have a new printer and you don't know the IP Printer
As an example of this process, we use an EPSON printer. When you first buy an Ethernet printer, it won't be able to connect to your network. To set it up first you'll need to change the network settings. IP Address needs to be set on a computer. You can't do this on your Tablet, as the printer needs to be plugged into the computer to change Default IP Printer. Follow this step to change your default IP Printer.
You must get the Default IP Address Printer. You should turn off your printer, then push and hold the feed button and then turn on your printer, the printer will print a receipt that contains your printer IP Address.
First, connect your printer to a netbook / desktop pc to change the IP Printer to be the same as IP Router. Go to Control Panel - Network and Internet - Network and Sharing Center - then go to Properties - click internet protocol version 4 TCP/IPv4.
Example :
IP Default printer
IP Address: 192.168.192.168

IP Address: 192.168.192.xxx (xxx means free number)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.192.1
