UNIX Systems
For more information on setting up DHCP on UNIX systems, see
the bootpd man page.
On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP configuration file (dhcptab)
may be located in the /etc directory.
Since HP-UX presently does not provide Dynamic Domain Name
Services (DDNS) for its DHCP implementations, HP recommends
that you set all print server lease durations to "infinite". This
ensures that print server IP addresses remain static until dynamic
domain name services are provided.
Windows Systems
HP Jetdirect print servers support IP configuration from a
supported Windows DHCP server. This section describes how to set
up a pool, or "scope," of IP addresses that the Windows server can
assign or lease to any requester. When configured for BOOTP or
DHCP operation and powered on, the HP Jetdirect print
server automatically sends a BOOTP or DHCP request for its IP
configuration. If properly set up, a Windows DHCP server will
respond with the print server's IP configuration data.

This information is provided as an overview. For
specific information or for additional support, see
the information supplied with your DHCP server
software.
To avoid problems resulting from IP addresses
that change, HP recommends that all printers
be assigned IP addresses with infinite leases or
reserved IP addresses.
