Procedure
To set configuration parameters, you must set up a Telnet connection from your system to the HP Jetdirect print server.
1.Type the following at the DOS prompt: telnet <IP address>
where:
<IP address> may be the print server’s assigned address from BOOTP, RARP, DHCP, from the printer control panel, or the default IP address. The default IP address is 192.0.0.192. The IP address is listed on the Jetdirect configuration page.
2.A connection to the print server will be displayed. If the server responds with “connected to IP address”, press [Enter] twice to make sure that the Telnet connection is initialized.
3.If prompted for a user name and password, enter the correct values.
By default, the Telnet interface does not require a user name or password. If an administrative password has been set, you will be prompted for a user name and this password before you can enter and save Telnet commands.
4.By default, a command line interface is provided. For a list of supported commands and parameters, see the list of Telnet commands and parameters at the end of this section. To configure parameters using the menu interface instead, enter Menu. For more information, see user interface options below.
User interface options
The print server provides two interface options to enter Telnet commands, command line interface, which is the default, and menu.
Command line interface (default) procedure
Use the following procedure for Telnet’s command line interface to change parameters:
1.At the Telnet prompt “>” enter:
<parameter>: <value>
where:
<parameter> is the string for the configuration parameter you are defining. Command strings are found in the first column of the Telnet commands and parameters list at the end
