server should be located on the same subnet as the
PrintSir. If you use Network Information Services (NIS)
in your system, you may need to rebuild the NIS map
with the BOOTP services before doing the following
BOOTP configuration. To rebuild the NIS map, please
refer to your system documentation.
To configure the IP address data for the BOOTP
server, you will need to log in the host of BOOTP
server as the super user (root). Perform the following
steps to add address entries,
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the
PrintSir’s IP address. You can add this address
to the /etc/hosts file, by adding a line such as:
203.66.191.12 pserver
2. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/bootptab file,
similar to the following:
hostname:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=print_server_ethernet_address:\
:ip=print_server_ip_address:
Lines should be indented with tabs.
Where hostname is the device name of a PrintSir,
the ht=1 tag specifies the hardware type is Ethernet,
the ha= tag specifies the Ethernet address of a PrintSir,
which is the Node ID located on the PrintSir. The ha
tag must be preceded by the ht tag. The ip= tag should
