Question

When installing a network printer, a technician needs to ensure the printer is available after a network is restarted. Which of the following should the technician set up on the printer to meet this requirement?

Options

  • AStatic IP address
  • BPrivate address
  • CWi-Fi on the printer
  • DDynamic addressing

Explanation

{"question_number": 9, "explanation": "Network printers need to be reachable at a consistent, predictable IP address so that computers and print servers can always find them. If the printer uses dynamic (DHCP) addressing, it may receive a different IP address each time the network restarts, breaking any configured printer connections. Assigning the printer a static IP address ensures it always uses the same address, making it reliably available after any network or device restart. A private address is any non-routable IP and does not ensure consistency. Wi-Fi capability is about connectivity, not address stability.", "generated_by": "claude-sonnet", "llm_judge_score": 4}
