Printronix P5000LJ user manual Telnet, Store TCP/IP add default router gatewayvalue

Chapter 7 TCP/IP NIC Configuration

Note	Windows uses hyphens to separate the values in the MAC address; Unix
	and others use colons.

Now power the printer up, and wait a minute or more for the NIC to obtain the address above.

Test by issuing the command ping IP_address.

If you do not get a positive ping response, check your arp table entry, and check that the printer is on the same “wire” as you (the same IP address range, different only in the value after the last period). Verify that you have not typed an IP address that you or someone else is already using. If you have, type the command arp -dIP_address at a DOS prompt to delete the incorrect entry and then type the correct value.

If you do get a positive ping response, remove the static arp entry (to avoid conflict) by using either telnet or a web browser. At a DOS prompt, type the command arp -d 192.168.20.20 (with your own IP Address value in place of this one). Then store this value into the NIC.

Telnet

Using a DOS window (or a third party tool capable of a telnet session), use the following:

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx or hosts_table_name login: root (default)

password: (no password is default)

welcome root user> (ignore warning messages about differences) store TCP/IP 1 addr from current (save the arp assigned value) list TCP/IP (you will see your IP address and a subnet address. If the subnet address is incorrect, use the following command to modify it) store TCP/IP 1 mask 255.255.255.0 (enter your mask value in place of this one)

If you have a gateway value, enter it now using the following commands:

store TCP/IP add default router gateway_value 1

reset (after a minute or so, you should be able to ping the print server)
