3. Use the process status command to verify the RARP daemon is running on your system, as in the following example from the system prompt: ps -ef | grep rarpd (Unix) ps ax | grep rarpd (BSD or Linux) 4. The system response should be similar to the following: 861 0.00.2 24 72 5 14:03 0:00 rarpd -a 860 0.00.5 36 140 5 14:03 0:00 rarpd -a 5. If the RARP daemon is not running on the system (the process is not in the process list), see the rarpd man page for instructions about starting the daemon. 6. Edit the /etc/hosts file to add your designated IP address and node name for the HP Jetdirect print server, as in the following example: 192.168.45.39 laserjet1 7. Edit the /etc/ethers file (/etc/rarpd.conf file in HP-UX 10.20) to add the LAN hardware address/station address (from the configuration page) and the node name for the HP Jetdirect print server, as in the following example: 00:01:E6:a8:b0:00 laserjet1 NOTE: If your system uses Network Information Service (NIS), you need to incorporate changes to the NIS host and ethers databases. 8. Turn the printer on. 9. Verify that the card is configured with the correct IP address, by using the ping utility as in the following example: ping In the example, is the assigned address from RARP. 10. If ping does not respond, see Troubleshoot the HP Jetdirect print server on page 117. Use the arp and ping commands (IPv4) You can configure an HP Jetdirect print server with an IP address using the arp command from a supported system. The workstation from which the configuration is made must be located on the same network segment as the HP Jetdirect print server. NOTE: If you are configuring an HP Jetdirect wireless print server, this section assumes that a wireless network connection is established. Using the arp and ping commands with HP Jetdirect print servers requires the following: ● Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 or UNIX system configured for TCP/IP operation ● Legacy default IP address of 192.0.0.192 on the print server ● LAN hardware (MAC) address of the HP Jetdirect print server, specified on an HP Jetdirect configuration page, or on a label attached to HP Jetdirect external print servers ENWW IPv4 configuration 37

3.
Use the process status command to verify the RARP daemon is running on your system, as in the
following example from the system prompt:
ps -ef | grep rarpd
(Unix)
ps ax | grep rarpd
(BSD or Linux)
4.
The system response should be similar to the following:
861 0.00.2 24 72 5 14:03 0:00 rarpd -a
860 0.00.5 36 140 5 14:03 0:00 rarpd -a
5.
If the RARP daemon is not running on the system (the process is not in the process list), see the
rarpd man page for instructions about starting the daemon.
6.
Edit the
/etc/hosts
file to add your designated IP address and node name for the HP Jetdirect
print server, as in the following example:
192.168.45.39 laserjet1
7.
Edit the
/etc/ethers
file (
/etc/rarpd.conf
file in HP-UX 10.20) to add the LAN hardware
address/station address (from the configuration page) and the node name for the HP Jetdirect print
server, as in the following example:
00:01:E6:a8:b0:00 laserjet1
NOTE:
If your system uses Network Information Service (NIS), you need to incorporate changes
to the NIS host and ethers databases.
8.
Turn the printer on.
9.
Verify that the card is configured with the correct IP address, by using the ping utility as in the
following example:
ping <IP address>
In the example,
<IP address>
is the assigned address from RARP.
10.
If ping does not respond, see
Troubleshoot the HP Jetdirect print server
on page
117
.
Use the arp and ping commands (IPv4)
You can configure an HP Jetdirect print server with an IP address using the arp command from a
supported system. The workstation from which the configuration is made must be located on the same
network segment as the HP Jetdirect print server.
NOTE:
If you are configuring an HP Jetdirect wireless print server, this section assumes that a wireless
network connection is established.
Using the arp and ping commands with HP Jetdirect print servers requires the following:
●
Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 or UNIX system configured for TCP/IP operation
●
Legacy default IP address of 192.0.0.192 on the print server
●
LAN hardware (MAC) address of the HP Jetdirect print server, specified on an HP Jetdirect
configuration page, or on a label attached to HP Jetdirect external print servers
