IPV4 Settings Config Method Specifies the method that TCP/IPv4 parameters will be
configured on the HP Jetdirect print server.
Bootp: Use BootP (Bootstrap Protocol) for automatic
configuration from a BootP server.
DHCP (default): Use DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) for automatic configuration from a DHCPv4
server. If selected and a DHCP lease exists, DHCP Release
and DHCP Renew menus are available to set DHCP lease
options.
Auto IP: Use automatic link-local IPv4 addressing. An
address in the form 169.254.x.x is assigned
automatically.
Manual: Use the Manual Settings menu to configure TCP/
IPv4 parameters.
DHCP Release This menu appears if Config Method was set to DHCP and
a DHCP lease for the print server exists.
No (default): The current DHCP lease is saved.
Yes: The current DHCP lease and the leased IP address
are released.
DHCP Renew This menu appears if Config Method was set to DHCP and
a DHCP lease for the print server exists.
No (default): The print server does not request to renew
the DHCP lease.
Yes: The print server requests to renew the current DHCP
lease.
Manual Settings (Available only if Config Method is set to Manual)
Configure parameters directly from the printer control
panel:
IP Address: The unique IP address of the printer (n.n.n.n).
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask for the printer (n.n.n.n).
Syslog Server: The IP address of the syslog server
(n.n.n.n) used to receive and log syslog messages.
Default Gateway: The IP address (n.n.n.n) of the gateway
or router used for communications with other networks.
Idle Timeout: The time period, in seconds, after which an
idle TCP print data connection is closed (default is 270
seconds, 0 disables the timeout).
Default IP Specify the IP address to default to when the print server
is unable to obtain an IP address from the network during
a forced TCP/IP reconfiguration (for example, when
manually configured to use BootP or DHCP).
Auto IP: A link-local IP address 169.254.x.x is set.
Legacy: The address 192.0.0.192 is set, consistent with
older HP Jetdirect devices.
