Default IP Address (IPv4), Default IP Address Will Not Be Assigned

Page 31 highlights

The print server may also be configured manually. Manual-based tools include Telnet, a Web browser, the printer control panel, arp and ping commands (when the default IP address is 192.0.0.192), or SNMP-based management software. TCP/IP configuration values assigned manually will be retained when powered off/on. The print server can be reconfigured to use either server-based or manual configuration of TCP/IP settings at any time. To identify the IP address that is configured on the print server at any time, see the HP Jetdirect configuration page. Default IP Address (IPv4) When in a factory-default state (for example, when shipped from the factory or after a cold-reset), the HP Jetdirect print server has no IP address. A default IP address may or may not be assigned depending on the network environment. Default IP Address Will Not Be Assigned A default IP address will not be assigned if a server-based method (such as BOOTP or DHCP) is successful. And if the print server is powered off/on, the same method will again be used to retrieve IP configuration settings. If this method now fails to retrieve the IP configuration settings (for example, the BOOTP or DHCP server is no longer available), a default IP address will not be assigned. Instead, the print server will continue to send IP configuration requests indefinitely. You must cold-reset the print server to change this behavior. In addition, a default IP address will not be assigned if a network cable is not attached to a wired print server. Default IP Address Will Be Assigned A default IP address will be assigned if the factory-default methods fail, or if the print server has just been reconfigured by an administrator to use a server-based method (such as BOOTP or DHCP) that fails.

The print server can be reconfigured to use either server-based or manual configuration of TCP/IP

To identify the IP address that is configured on the print server at any time, see the HP Jetdirect
configuration page.
Default IP Address (IPv4)
When in a factory-default state (for example, when shipped from the factory or after a cold-reset), the
HP Jetdirect print server has no IP address. A default IP address may or may not be assigned
depending on the network environment.
Default IP Address Will Not Be Assigned
A default IP address will not be assigned if a server-based method (such as BOOTP or DHCP) is
successful. And if the print server is powered off/on, the same method will again be used to retrieve
IP configuration settings. If this method now fails to retrieve the IP configuration settings (for
example, the BOOTP or DHCP server is no longer available), a default IP address will not be
assigned. Instead, the print server will continue to send IP configuration requests indefinitely. You
must cold-reset the print server to change this behavior.
In addition, a default IP address will not be assigned if a network cable is not attached to a wired
print server.
Default IP Address Will Be Assigned
A default IP address will be assigned if the factory-default methods fail, or if the print server has just
been reconfigured by an administrator to use a server-based method (such as BOOTP or DHCP)
that fails.
