addresses you enter.

Log in as root.

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
O T E
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.
6.
Turn on the printer.
7.
Execute the ping command from the host:
ping printer-IP-address
8.
Use the host spooling system (for example, lpr or lp) to send to the
printer the file you created in Step 2b. This stores the IP addressing
information in the printer's internal memory, where it is retained over
a reset or power cycle. (For more information on setting up queues, see
"Assigning a print queue to the printer" on page 31.)
9.
Reset the printer.
