There may be occasions where it is desirable to connect the printer to two entirely separate
networks. In this scenario, the hosts on one network are not reachable through the other
network. To make this work correctly, the two networks must be on different subnets. The IP
Address and Subnet Mask settings must be properly set to achieve this. For example, if both
interfaces are configured with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0, the wired interface IP Address is set
to 192.168.0.11 and the wireless interface IP Address is set to 192.168.1.47, both interfaces are
on different subnets. If the configuration of the printer network settings is not done correctly,
communications may fail due to packets being sent on the wrong interface. When configured
for different subnets, the printer does not provide a bridge between the two networks.
