About the Configuration File
To configure printer settings or to perform other tasks, such as loading fonts, color tables, and job
patches, you can create a startup network configuration file. Every time the printer is turned on or

is acquired and confirmed in the printer. The TFTP service processes the data in the
configuration file as if it were a standard print job.
Configuration File Requirements
The configuration file must be:
•

commands. For a list of additional PCL and PJL commands, see
page 69.
•
Stored on a TFTP server that the printer can access over the TCP/IP network.

Use DHCP option 67 to specify the pathname of the configuration file.
For information on how to set these parameters, refer to your DHCP or BOOTP server
