Changing the IP Address settings with
the TELNET Console

You can also use the TELNET command to change the IP address.

Using TELNET is effective way, when you change the IP address. But
a valid IP address must already be programmed into the print server.

If you are using the TELNET, you will be expected to enter the
password of the print server. Press RETURN and enter the default
password of

access

in response to the "#" prompt (it will not echo).

You will be prompted for a user name. Enter anything in response to
this prompt.

You will then get the

Local>

prompt. Type

SET IP ADDRESS

ipaddress

, where

ipaddress

is the desired IP address you wish

to assign to the print server (check with your network manager for the
IP address to use). For example:

Local> SET IP ADDRESS 192.189.207.3

You will now need to set the subnet mask by typing

SET IP SUBNET

subnet mask

, where

subnet mask

is the desired subnet mask

you wish to assign to the print server (check with your network
manager for the subnet mask to use). For example:

Local> SET IP SUBNET 255.255.255.0

If you do not have any subnets, use one of the following default
subnet masks:

255.255.255.0

for class C networks

255.255.0.0

for class B networks

255.0.0.0

for class A networks

The leftmost group of digits in your IP address can identify the type
of network you have. The value of this group ranges from 192
through 255 for Class C networks (e.g., 192.189.207.3), 128 through
191 for Class B networks (e.g.,128.10.1.30), and 1 through 127 for
Class A networks (e.g., 13.27.7.1).
