Installation and Reference for the Model PS104/PS105/PS110 Print Server 5. Select Enable or Disable to enable or disable DHCP. If DHCP is enabled, the print server can be set up to obtain its IP address from a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or can be manually assigned an IP address at this menu tab. If DHCP is disabled, be sure that the IP address assigned to the device is not already in use when assigning the IP address manually. For a private TCP/IP network, you can use the IETP-designated private addresses (for example, 192.168.X.X or 10.X.X.X). For more information about IP addresses, refer to Appendix B, "Understanding IP Addresses." 6. Type the subnet mask and gateway address (if DHCP is disabled) or proceed to step 7. 7. Click on the Save To Device button to download the new print server configuration. 8. Click on Return to Main Menu to exit the Advanced Configuration window. 9. Click on Exit on the main menu.

Description
DHCP
This option allows you to enable or disable the print server’s ability to get its IP address from
a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. When disabled, you can provide a
fixed IP address in the IP address, Gateway address, and Subnet Mask fields (listed in this
table).
IP Address
This IP address is assigned to the print server. If you have a private LAN and do not plan to
connect to the TCP/IP-based Internet, NETGEAR recommends that you use an address
from the IETP-designated private addresses (for example, 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x).
Gateway
Address
This IP address is what the print server uses for stations with IP addresses not reachable on
your local LAN.
Subnet Mask
This subnet mask defines the range of addresses that are reachable on your local LAN.
