Setting an IP Address without PS Admin

82

The PS Admin program allows you to set your print server’s IP address (and other TCP/IP parameters). If you don’t have a

Windows-based workstation and you need to set your print server’s address, you can use a BOOTP (Boot Protocol) server, or the manual method described below.

If you want to use BOOTP, your local Ethernet network needs to have a BOOTP server. The BOOTP server table needs to have an entry listing the print server’s Ethernet (MAC) address, the IP address you want to assign to the print server, the network’s mask, and the default gateway (router) address. Consult your BOOTP server documentation for information about how to add an entry to the server table.

If you aren’t using BOOTP, you can manually set the IP address using the following method:

1. Note your print server’s Ethernet (MAC) address. The

Ethernet address is a 12-digit hex number printed on a sticker on the bottom of your print server.

2. Use a host on the same local Ethernet network as the print server. Change your host’s ARP (address resolution
