1.(For internal print servers) If you use the printer control panel to set Manual or BOOTP configuration, then DHCP will not be used.

2.You can use Telnet to set Manual (status indicates “User Specified”) or BOOTP configuration, then DHCP will not be used.

3.You can manually modify the TCP/IP parameters through a supported Web browser using the Jetdirect embedded Web server or HP Web Jetadmin.

If you change to BOOTP configuration, the DHCP-configured parameters are released and the TCP/IP protocol is initialized.

If you change to Manual configuration, the DHCP-configured IP address is released and the user-specified IP parameters are used.

Therefore, if you manually provide the IP address, you should also manually set all of the configuration parameters, such as subnet mask, default gateway, and idle timeout.

Note

If you choose to re-enable a DHCP configuration,

 

the print server will acquire its configuration

 

information from a DHCP server. This means that

 

when you choose DHCP and complete your

 

configuration session (using Telnet, for example),

 

the TCP/IP protocol for the print server is

 

re-initialized and all current configuration

 

information is deleted. The print server then

 

attempts to acquire new configuration information

 

by sending DHCP requests on the network to a

 

DHCP server.

 

 

For DHCP configuration through Telnet, refer to “Using Telnet” in this chapter.
