Dynamic Addressing (Rarp/Bootp) - Xerox DocuPrint Network Laser Printers Information Manual

Dynamic Addressing
(RARP/BOOTP)
The TCP/IP address is assigned automatically by the
Server. Follow the steps below:
1 Power on your DocuPrint network printer and allow time
for an IP address to be assigned by the RARP/BOOTP
server (this time may vary depending on network traffic).
If you are using the Xerox CentreDirect External Print Server
(External Ethernet Adapter) to connect your printer to the
network, make sure the Adapter is powered on in addition to
the printer.
When the CentreDirect External Print Server acquires an IP
Address, the SYS LED blinks once per second. If the IP Address
is not set the SYSLED blinks 5 times per second.

etc/hosts files with a host name, TCP/IP and hardware
addresses. Consult your UNIX documentation for more
RARP/BOOTP server configuration details.
