9 - 11 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION

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).

If you have a gateway (router), enter its address with the command

SET IP ROUTER routeraddress

, where

routeraddress

is the

desired IP address of the gateway you wish to assign to the print
server. For example:

Local> SET IP ROUTER 192.189.207.1

Type

SET IP METHOD STATIC

to set the method of IP access

configuration to static.

To verify that you have entered the IP information correctly, type

SHOW IP

.

Type

EXIT

or CTR-D (i.e., hold down the control key and type "D")

to end the remote console session.

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.
