Running the config-IP script
1.
Connect the printer to a network. ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)
requires that the printer be connected on the same physical network
segment as the host.
2.
Run the script config-IP:
a.
In the directory where you placed your printer's network utilities,
change (cd) to the bin subdirectory.
b.
Type the name of the script, redirecting the output to a file. Type:
config-IP > filename
3.
Enter the information when prompted by the script.
N
O T E
The script accepts IP addresses that have empty fields (for example,
123..40.10). The script does not detect this error. Double-check the IP
addresses you enter.
4.
Log in as root.
5.
Make an entry into the host's ARP table defining the printer's
IP/hardware address pair. In general, this requires a command
corresponding to one of the following examples:
arp -s printer-IP-address hardware-address
or
arp -s ether printer-IP-address hardware-address (for System V)
See your host system documentation for specifics of this command.
N

The hardware address in the arp command example is the printer's Ethernet
Address for PhaserShare Ethernet interfaces or the Token Ring Address for
PhaserShare Token Ring cards.
