The printer recognizes the BOOTP/DHCP fields listed in the following table.
Values
List of IP addresses separated by spaces.
Hexadecimal; the ha tag must be preceded by the ht tag.
Unsigned decimal, octal, or hexadecimal integer, or one of the
following symbolic names:
For UNIX Ethernet:
ethernet or ether for 10-Mbit Ethernet (DIX encapsulation);
ieee802 for IEEE 802 Ethernet (SNAP encapsulation).
For UNIX Token Ring:
token ring
For OS/2 Ethernet or Token Ring:
ether
Single IP address.
List of IP addresses separated by spaces.
Single IP address.
Single domain name.
Printer recognizes up to two IP addresses, separated by spaces.
Use the config-IP script to create a PostScript file that sets the printer's IP
addressing parameters. The config-IP script is provided with your printer's
network utilities software.
The output of the script is PostScript code, which you must send to the
printer. When you run the script, redirect the output to a file. Then
send the file to the printer.
The script prompts you to provide certain information. For information
about these prompts, see the next table "IP parameters".
The advantage of this method is that each printer has a permanent setup stored
in memory and is not dependent on a boot server for boot information. The
disadvantage is that you must configure each printer individually.
