Networking (Connectivity) Hints & Tips 
AppleTalk 
Subtopic  Description and Recommended Action 
AppleTalk printer 
name is queue 
name 
The AppleTalk printer name will be the device’s Queue name. The queue name is 
comprised of the device’s hostname with VP added at the end. Example: joeVP. 
Connectivity Hardware (Ethernet) 
Subtopic  CQ#  Description and Recommended Action 
Ethernet  23214  If using a Gigabit Ethernet connection, use "AUTO" speed setting in 
Network Config. The 1000 speed setting does not work. "AUTO" is the 
default. 
DHCP/BOOTP 
Subtopic  CQ#  Description and Recommended Action 
BOOTP  08912  BOOTP is not supported. 
DHCP  41118  If the machine will not initialize the DocuSP GUI and the device is in DHCP 
mode, make sure the cable is plugged in and/or a DHCP server is available. 
Reboot in both cases when they are fixed. 
DHCP  30541  If a device is switched from DHCP to static mode and WINS is enabled, the 
WINS entry on the WINS server for the pervious DHCP address needs to 
be deleted. You may experience printing problems from clients that use 
hostnames in their printer configurations if this is not done. 
DNS/DDNS 
Subtopic  CQ#  Description and Recommended Action 
DNS entry 
problem 
32234  You may have a problem with the DNS entry for the device when DDNS is 
enabled and you switch from DHCP mode to STATIC. 
NetWare and 
Linux DHCP 
servers 
25646  NetWare and Linux DHCP servers cannot make Dynamic DNS (DDNS) 
updates on behalf of the DocuSP system. This happens when the device is 
DHCP and DNS enabled and the DHCP server is configured to make the 
DNS updates on behalf of the device.  Workaround: Enable DDNS on the 
device itself, and allow it to make the updates. 
Text record 
with DDNS 
enable 
31686  A "text" record gets registered with the DNS server when the device has 
DDNS enable. The text record means nothing and does nothing. You can 
leave it or delete it.
