Setting from BOOTP

BOOTP is a protocol for assigning IP addresses which have been registered on a BOOTP server to each host on the TCP/IP network. The printer will acquire an IP adddress when it is turned on.

2Add the following settings to the /etc/bootptab file. Example: If the IP Address is “00:80:92:00:11:BC”

This function is not available unless there is a BOOTP server on the network.

[DHCP/BOOTP protocol] on the Fast EtherNet needs to be set to [ENABLE]. If it is set to [DISABLE], change the setting to [ENABLE], referring to Printer Preparation.
