Using
AXIS IP Installer
Follow the instructions below to set the IP address of your AXIS 5400 
using the AXIS IP Installer:
Important! ❏ You should not use AXIS IP Installer to set the IP address of the 
AXIS 5400, if you have an active DHCP server in your network.
1. Download the AXIS IP Installer to your host. The software is 
available on the AXIS Online CD and on the Axis home page at 
http://www.axis.com/.
2. Connect the AXIS 5400 to the network. Note the serial number 
that is located on the underside label of the AXIS 5400. You will 
need it in the proceedings steps.
3. Start the AXIS IP Installer.
4. Click the serial number of your AXIS 5400 that appears in the 
server list.
5. Enter the desired IP address in the designated IP address field and 
click the Set IP address button.
6. The IP setting process will take approximately 10 to 40 seconds. 
Click OK in the confirmation box that appears when the IP 
address has been set.
Notes: ❏ AXIS IP Installer uses the BOOTP and DHCP protocols to 
communicate with the AXIS 5400. Make sure that at least one of 
these protocols is enabled in your print server.
❏ Restart your AXIS 5400, if it does not show up in the server list.
