13.2 Console Mode

To configure the MFP Server for LPD printing, perform the

procedures below:

1. Enable MFP Server’s TCP/IP Support.

2. Set up MFP Server’s IP address.

3. Verify MFP Server’s IP Address.

4. Configure remote LPD printing on the host.

5. Print a test page.

In the next sections, we will describe these five procedures step by

step.

13.2.1 Enable MFP Server’s TCP/IP Support

The default configuration of the MFP Server is with TCP/IP support

enabled. Anyway, you can configure the MFP Server to enable

TCP/IP support using the configuration program.

13.2.2 Setup MFP Server’s IP Address

The MFP Server must have a unique IP address in order to be

recognized by the network.

You can set up the IP address on the various Unix/Linux systems

using any one of the following methods:

1. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

2. BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)

The MFP Server will use the last two methods to obtain its IP

address automatically if its IP address is configured as Auto

(0.0.0.0).
