Kyocera TASKalfa 2554ci Network, Mobile and Cloud Setup
What to Connect First
Connecting a TASKalfa 2554ci comes down to three jobs, giving it a fixed address on your network, installing the driver from that address, and pointing phones at it over AirPrint, Mopria or the Kyocera app.
Do them in that order.
The machine will take a DHCP address on its own, but a printer that changes address breaks every driver on every desk, so set a static IP or a DHCP reservation before you install anything.
This page sets out the network, driver and mobile steps in the order they actually need doing, and the productivity guide covers what to do once it is connected.
Reading the address back and installing the driver
Print the status page from the panel to read the address back, or check the 2554ci specifications.
The driver then installs against that address rather than against a name that may not resolve.
Phones are the easy part and need no driver at all.
Setup questions go to the install team
Setup questions go to the same team that installs these machines, which has done so since 2010.
Every technician on the team is Kyocera factory trained.

Use the Kyocera Taskalfa 2554ci manual for anything this page does not cover.
The settings below come from Kyocera’s own documentation, and the reason those settings are what they are goes back to decades of Kyocera’s industry expertise in document solutions.
