Note | The card must be configured with a valid IP address |
| to operate on a TCP/IP network. |
| For DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) |
| operation, BOOTP must be enabled. |
| If an IP address is configured through DHCP and is |
| subsequently changed through the control panel, |
| the DHCP assigned address is released. |
| If a printer is configured through DHCP, and you |
| manually change the subnet mask or default |
| gateway through the control panel, you should |
| also change the IP address. |

To configure TCP/IP parameters
If you have not already done so, enable TCP/IP (TCP/IP=ON*) by following the instructions described in “To Enable or Disable Network Protocols” earlier in this chapter.
Note | Enter data carefully. If you make an incorrect entry, |
| you cannot change it without starting again from |
| step 1. |
1.Take the printer offline by pressing [Go]. The “Ready” LED should be off.
2.Press [Menu] repeatedly until EIO # JETDIRECT MENU is displayed (# identifies the EIO slot number of the card).
3.Press [Item] until CFG NETWORK=NO* appears.
NO* indicates that access to the EIO JetDirect network menus will be bypassed. You must change this to CFG NETWORK=YES* to access the EIO JetDirect menus:
a.Press [Value]. CFG NETWORK=YES appears.
b.Press [Select]. CFG NETWORK=YES* appears.
