3.7.1 BOOTP process

So far, this chapter has only been dealing with the setting up of the PrintServer from a BOOTP server. However, the PrintServer can also be equipped with a so-called “ default configuration”. This default configuration will be carried out if the PrintServer cannot detect a BOOTP server at the time the PrintServer is powered on. The default settings are similar to the ones defined on the BOOTP server. For an illustration of this boot event, please see the flow chart below.
