Page 33 highlights

11 Configure your printer with a reserved IP address within the DHCP scope: a In the DHCP tree, open the folder for your scope and select Reservations. b Click the Action menu and select New Reservation. c Enter the appropriate information in each field, including the reserved IP address for your printer. (Note: the MAC address for your HP Jetdirect-connected printer is available on the HP Jetdirect configuration page.) d Under "Supported types", select DHCP only, then click Add. (Note: Selecting Both or BOOTP only will result in a configuration through BOOTP due to the sequence in which HP Jetdirect print servers initiate configuration protocol requests.) e Specify another reserved client, or click Close. The reserved clients added will be displayed in the Reservations folder for this scope. 12 Close the DHCP manager utility. NetWare Systems NetWare 5.x servers provide DHCP configuration services for network clients, including the HP Jetdirect print server. To set up DHCP services on a NetWare server, refer to Novell documentation and support. To Discontinue DHCP Configuration CAUTION Changes to an IP address on your HP Jetdirect print server may require updates to printer or system printing configurations for clients or servers. If you do not want your HP Jetdirect print server configured through DHCP, you must re-configure the print server to use a different configuration method. 1 If you use the printer control panel to set Manual or BOOTP configuration, then DHCP will not be used. 2 You can use Telnet to set Manual (status indicates "User Specified") or BOOTP configuration, then DHCP will not be used. 3 You can manually modify the TCP/IP parameters through a supported Web browser using the Jetdirect embedded Web server or HP Web Jetadmin. If you change to BOOTP configuration, the DHCP-configured parameters are released and the TCP/ IP protocol is initialized. If you change to Manual configuration, the DHCP-configured IP address is released and the userspecified IP parameters are used. Therefore, if you manually provide the IP address, you should also manually set all of the configuration parameters, such as subnet mask, default gateway, and idle timeout. ENWW Using DHCP 25

To Discontinue DHCP Configuration
CAUTION
Changes to an IP address on your HP Jetdirect print server may require updates
to printer or system printing configurations for clients or servers.
If you do not want your HP Jetdirect print server configured through DHCP, you must re-configure
the print server to use a different configuration method.
1
If you use the printer control panel to set Manual or BOOTP configuration, then DHCP will not be
used.
2
You can use Telnet to set Manual (status indicates “User Specified”) or BOOTP configuration,
then DHCP will not be used.
3
You can manually modify the TCP/IP parameters through a supported Web browser using the
Jetdirect embedded Web server or HP Web Jetadmin.
If you change to BOOTP configuration, the DHCP-configured parameters are released and the TCP/
IP protocol is initialized.
If you change to Manual configuration, the DHCP-configured IP address is released and the user-
specified IP parameters are used.
Therefore, if you manually provide the IP address, you should
also manually set all of the configuration parameters, such as subnet mask, default gateway,
and idle timeout.
