how to access a printer with the ethernet cable
Hey I have a Kyocera KM-3060 and It got stuck with the wrong ip address, so i need to change that but I cant access it over the network, so how can I access the printer with a laptop and the ethernet cable?, I've used a USB cable but it doesnt take me to the main administration panel... so any ideas?

in addition to what thinkpads said, I used a crossed-wire to access the device!
Thanks

use crossed-wires for these kinda situations!
If no going via a swith - that is making direct connect from printer to PC - please remember the ethernet cable should be cross-over type.
Can you access the Web Interface by using http://123.123.123.123 (replace with Kyocera IP Address)?
Have you set the IP address up as a fixed IP Address using DHCP on your router / DHCP Server?
USB cable won't be much use to you - you need to use TCP/IP to access the printer.
