DNS Server | The IP address of the network’s domain name server (DNS). | |
| When you use the Web or send an | |
| name to do it. For example, the URL http://www.hp.com contains the | |
| domain name hp.com. The Internet's domain name servers (DNS) | |
| translate the domain name into an IP address. Devices use the IP | |
| addresses to refer to one another. | |
| • | IP Address: the domain name server’s IP address. |
| • | Not Specified: the IP address is not specified, or the device is |
|
| initializing. |
|
| Note: Check to see if a DNS IP address appears on the network |
|
| configuration page. If no address is shown, obtain the DNS IP |
|
| address from your ISP. The DNS IP address is required for Instant |
|
| Share registration, and can be entered through the embedded Web |
|
| server. |

mDNS Service Name | Multicast Domain Name Server Service Name. The name used by Apple | |
| Rendezvous to identify the HP PSC, which consists of the device name | |
| and the MAC Address. For example, psc 2500 series (<MAC Address>). | |
| Rendezvous is used with local and | |
| DNS servers. To perform name services, Rendezvous uses a DNS | |
| alternative called mDNS. | |
| With mDNS, your computer can find and use any printer connected to | |
| your local area network. It can also work with any other Ethernet- | |
| enabled device that appears on the network. | |
