Description
Use the fields provided to configure the print server with primary and secondary
Domain Name System (DNS) servers on your IPv4 or IPv6 networks.
Primary: Specify the IP address of the primary DNS (Domain Name System) server.
Secondary: Specify the IP address of a secondary DNS server to use if the primary
DNS server is unavailable.
Use the fields provided to configure the print server with preferred and alternate
Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server on your IPv4 network. Like DNS,
WINS provides IP address and name resolution services for network computers and
devices.
Preferred: Specify the IP address of the primary WINS server.
Alternate: Specify the IP address to be used for WINS if the preferred WINS Server is
unavailable.
Use this section to specify the Multicast Domain Name System (mDNS) Service
Name, or to identify the assigned mDNS Domain Name.
■ mDNS Service Name: This name is persistent and is used to resolve a particular
device or service if socket information (such as the IP address) changes from
session to session.
The default service name is the printer model along with the last six digits of the
LAN Hardware (MAC) address. To change the name assigned to this device or
service, enter an alphanumeric string of up to 64 ASCII characters.
■ Domain Name: (Read-only parameter) Specifies the mDNS domain name
assigned to the device, in the form <host name>.local. If a host name has not
been assigned, the default host name NPIxxxxxx is used, where xxxxxx are the
last 6 digits of the LAN hardware (MAC) address.
Description
Selects the method that the HP Jetdirect print server will use for its IP configuration
parameters: BOOTP (default), DHCP, Manual, or Auto IP.
For BOOTP or DHCP, the IP parameters will be automatically configured by a BOOTP or
DHCP server each time the print server is powered on.
If you select Manual, then basic IP parameters can be manually entered using this Web
page, or using other available tools.
If you select Auto IP, then a unique link-local address 169.254.x.x will be assigned.
For more information, see TCP/IP
Use this field to manually assign the Internet Protocol address on the HP Jetdirect print
server. The IP address is a four byte (32-bit) address in the form "n.n.n.n", where 'n' is a
number from 0 to 255.
