●Not Specified a default gateway is not configured.
Config By Identifies how the print server obtained its IP configuration.
●Not Configured the print server was not configured with IP parameters. Verify that TCP/IP is enabled, or check for error status.
●BOOTP automatic configuration via a BOOTP server.
●BOOTP/TFTP automatic configuration via a BOOTP server and TFTP configuration file.
