Print Server Name
The print server name (default name) is made up of the two letters
'IC' and the device number. The device number consists of the last
six numbers of its hardware address.
Gateway
Using a gateway, you can address IP addresses from external
networks. If you wish to use a gateway, you can configure the
relevant parameter via the PRINTSERVER Homepage or the
PRINTSERVER-NetTool.
Host Name
The host name is an alias for an IP address. The host name uniquely
identifies the print server in the network and makes it easier to
remember.
The assignment is carried out either in the 'hosts' file or on the DNS
or WINS server. The 'hosts' file is an internal system file in which the
assignment of the host names to the IP addresses is saved.
Syntax:
Example:
192.168.0.123 IC0001FF
The 'hosts' file is located in the 'windows' directory in Windows
networks. In other operating systems, such as AS/400 for example,
the name of the assignment file may differ.
