You can control access to the machine by using an IP address. You can set whether to allow for setting or printing from a specified IP address. IP filtering is disabled by factory default.

-
Be sure to specify the correct IP address. An incorrect entry of an IP address does not allow for access to the printer by using the IP protocol.

If you enable IP filtering, access to hosts that are not specified in this setting is rejected.
