Item Description
The DNS suffix list is a list of domain names for the printer. If user-friendly host names
are used, a DNS suffix list may be created and stored on the print server to assist in
resolving the printer's host name with its IP address.
To add an entry to the suffix list, enter a domain name (text string) in the field next to the
Add button, then click Add. To delete an entry from the list, select the entry and click
Delete.
DNS suffix entries may consist of up to 256 alphanumeric characters and periods. The
DNS suffix list may contain up to 32 entries.
WINS (IPv4 only) Use the fields provided to configure the print server with preferred and alternate Windows
Internet Naming Service (WINS) server on your IPv4 network. Like DNS, WINS provides
IP address and name resolution services for network computers and devices.
Preferred (Primary): Specify the IP address of the preferred WINS server.
Alternate (Secondary): Specify the IP address to be used for WINS if the preferred
WINS Server is unavailable.
Bonjour Use this section to specify the Bonjour Service Name (formerly listed as Multicast
Domain Name System, or mDNS, Service Name), or to identify the assigned Bonjour
Domain Name.
●
Bonjour Service Name: This name is persistent and is used to resolve a particular
device or service if socket information (such as the IP address) changes from
session to session.
The default service name is the printer model along with the last six digits of the
LAN Hardware (MAC) address. To change the name assigned to this device or
service, enter an alphanumeric string of up to 64 ASCII characters.
●
Bonjour Domain Name: (Read-only parameter) Specifies the Bonjour domain
name assigned to the device, in the form <host name>.local. If a host name has
not been assigned, the default host name NPIxxxxxx is used, where xxxxxx are the
last 6 digits of the LAN hardware (MAC) address.
TCP/IP(v4)
The TCP/IP(v4) tab allows you to configure basic IPv4 settings on the print server. For additional
parameters, see the Advanced tab.
Table 4-5 TCP/IP(v4) tab
Item Description
IP Configuration Method Selects the method that the HP Jetdirect print server will use for its IP configuration parameters:
BOOTP (default), DHCP, Manual, or Auto IP.
For BOOTP or DHCP, the IP parameters will be automatically configured by a BOOTP or DHCP
server each time the print server is powered on.
If you select Manual, then basic IP parameters can be manually entered using this Web page,
or using other available tools.
If you select Auto IP, then a unique link-local address 169.254.x.x will be assigned.
For more information, see
TCP/IP Configuration on page 17.
IP Address Use this field to manually assign the Internet Protocol address on the HP Jetdirect print server.
The IP address is a four byte (32-bit) address in dotted decimal format “n.n.n.n”, where ‘n’ is a
number from 0 to 255.
