TCP/IP protocol information

 

 

Message

Description

 

 

Status

The current TCP status:

 

Ready: The print server is waiting for data over TCP/IP.

 

Disabled: TCP/IP was manually disabled.

 

Initializing: The print server is searching for the BOOTP

 

server or trying to get the configuration file through TFTP. An

 

additional status message might also display.

 

Note

 

If the print server is not ready, an error code and message

 

displays.

 

 

Host Name

The host name configured on the print server. The host name

 

might be truncated.

 

Not Specified: No host name was specified in a BOOTP

 

response or TFTP configuration file.

 

NPIxxxxxx: The default name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx is

 

the last six digits of the LAN hardware (MAC) address.

 

 

IP Address

The Internet Protocol (IP) address assigned to the print

 

server. This is a required entry for its operation on a TCP/IP

 

network. During initialization, a temporary value of 0.0.0.0

 

displays. After two minutes, a default IP address of

 

192.0.0.192 is assigned, which might not be a valid IP

 

address for your network.

 

Not Specified: An IP address is not assigned or the value is

 

zero.

 

 

Subnet Mask

The IP subnet mask configured on the print server. During

 

initialization, a temporary value of 0.0.0.0 displays. Depending

 

on the configuration parameters, the print server might

 

automatically assign a usable default value.

 

Not Specified: A subnet mask is not configured.

 

 

Default Gateway

The IP address of the gateway used when sending packets off

 

of the local network. You can only configure one default

 

gateway. During initialization, a temporary value of 0.0.0.0

 

displays. If an IP address is not provided, the print server’s IP

 

address is used.

 

Not Specified: A default gateway is not configured.
