Using the Printer Control Panel

When supported by the printer, HP Jetdirect internal print servers provide a configuration menu that can be accessed from the printer’s control panel. Using this menu, you can enable or disable network protocols and set basic network parameters.

Note

For instructions on using the control panel for your

 

printer, refer to your printer documentation.

 

 

When accessing the HP Jetdirect menu from the printer’s control panel, you can set the following TCP/IP network configuration parameters:

IP host name

DHCP lease behavior (release or renew)

IP address of the print server

Subnet mask

Default gateway address

Syslog server address

Idle timeout period

If you need to configure more TCP/IP parameters than allowed by control panel configuration, use an alternate configuration tool (such as Telnet or the embedded Web server) as described in this chapter.

If the HP Jetdirect print server is configured with TCP/IP parameters from the printer control panel, the configuration is saved on the print server when powered off/on.
