Copyright © 2006, Cognitive. 229
Use TCP port 23 for Telnet connection to the printer. the port supports
the following commands:
BOOTP
Bootp (Boot protocol) is provided to enable dynamic IP address
assignment. Bootp requests are broadcast via UDP port 67. Port 68 will
listen for a response. When Bootp is enabled it will cause a 5 second
delay at turn-on. The printer supports the following Bootptab variables;
all other variables are ignored.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a more flexible
dynamic IP address assignment than BOOTP. DHCP requests are
broadcast via UDP port 67, and responses listened for on UDP port 68.
When DHCP is enabled it will cause a slight delay at turn-on
(configurable via the “VARIABLES ETHERNET DHCP_OFFERS”
command) as the printer gets offers of IP addresses and decides which
to use. The printer will request the following DHCP options:
