Chapter 5 — Setup in IPL
2 If you have chosen either DHCP+BOOTP, DHCP, or BOOTP, press
the key and you can read the temporary IP address automatically
assigned by the server, for example:
IP ADDRESS:
192.168.1.79
3 After having read the IP address, press the <Enter> key to go on to
Netmask parameter or press the <Setup> key to exit the Setup Mode.
Reading the Netmask, Default Router, and Name Server
ese parameters work in the same way as reading the IP address. In
case of DHCP, BOOTP, or DHCP+BOOTP, these parameters are set
automatically by the server. In case of the ARP’n’PING method, you will
have to set these parameters via the printer’s home page once the network
communication has been established.
Using ARP’n’PING to set an IP Address (Windows)
e ARP’n’PING method is intended for networks that do not have an
DHCP or BOOTP server.
You must have a free IP address, which will be permanently assigned to
the printer. However, it could be changed later from the printer’s home
page once the communication is established.
You must also have the printer’s MAC address. You can get the MAC
address from the Setup Mode as shown above or from the serial number
label on the EasyLAN board.
If the printer is started with DHCP and/or BOOTP, the printer will try
to find an IP address five times before it considers it a failure. is takes
about 2 minutes during which you cannot start using the ARP’n’PING
method.
e following instructions apply to Windows 2000, but similar methods
can be used on other operating systems, both in Windows and in Unix.
In Windows, the groups of digits in the MAC address are separated by
hyphens (-), and in Unix by colons (:).
