Print Server Installation Manual
5.1
Saving the IP address of the Print Server
The print server must be known to the network via its IP address. If
you want to assign an IP address to a print server, see:
One way is to assign an IP address via the 'arp' and 'ping' commands.
In order to save the IP address in the print server, the ARP table must
be edited first. After that, the 'ping' command is used to send the IP
address to the print server, where it is saved.
Use the 'arp' and 'ping' commands to save the IP address if your
network has no superordinate management of IP addresses and host
names.
Proceed as follows:
1. Edit the ARP table:
Syntax:
arp -s <IP address>< hardware address>
Example:
arp -s 192.168.0.123 00:c0:eb:00:01:ff
2. Assign a new IP address to the print server:
Syntax:
ping <IP address>
Example:
ping 192.168.0.123
