LaserWriter 8 version 8.5.1 or higher is required in order to support IP printing on computers running
any of the following:
■ Mac OS 8.1 or higher
■ Mac OS 7.5 through Mac OS 7.6.1
■ Desktop Printer Utility 1.0 or later
NOTE

Assigning an IP Address

Before you can set up a printer for LPR printing, assign an IP address to the printer or print server.
Use the HP LaserJet Utility to configure the printer IP address as follows:
1 Double-click HP LaserJet Utility in the HP LaserJet folder.
2 Click the Settings button.
3 Select TCP/IP from the scrolling list and then click Edit.
4 Select the desired option. You can automatically obtain the TCP/IP configuration from either the
DHCP server or the BOOTP server, or you can manually specify the TCP/IP configuration.

Setting Up Mac OS

To configure a computer for LPR printing, do the following:
1 Launch the Desktop Printer Utility.
2 Select Printer (LPR) and click OK.
3 In the PostScript Printer Description (PPD) File section, click Change... and select the PPD for
your printer.
4 In the Internet Printer or the LPR Printer section, depending on your version of the Desktop
Printer Utility, click Change....
5 Enter the printer's IP address or domain name for Printer Address.
NOTE
However, support through the use of name resolution may be available provided the
appropriate IPv6 records are configured in DNS. If name resolution is supported, you can
enter the print server's host name or a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) on these
applications.
6 Enter the queue name, if used. Otherwise, leave it blank.
