8 Setting the Printer’s IP Addressing Parameters

Defining a scope in Windows NT 3.5.x

a.Open the Network Administration group.

b.Double-click DHCP Manager.

c.Double-click Local Machine.

d.Click Scope, Create.

e.Enter the IP information to define the scope.

3.Define the lease. A lease is a pre-determined time that the printer holds the IP address. When the lease time expires, the printer queries the DHCP server again to renew its lease of the IP address. It is recommended that you set the lease to Unlimited.

4.Define a name for the scope. You are prompted to activate the newly created scope; answer Yes.

5.Restart the DHCP server:

a.In Control Panel:Services, scroll to DHCP Server.

b.Click Stop; click Start.

c.Click Close.

6.Turn on the printer. The printer receives its IP address from the server. Print a Configuration Page to obtain the IP address (“Printing a Configuration Page” on page 2).

7.Using Add Printer Wizard (Windows NT 4.0) or Print Manager (Windows NT 3.5x), verify that a Windows NT printer port refers to the printer’s IP address or DNS name. See Chapter 7, “Windows NT” for more information.

8.Configure the printer’s DHCP client software.
