Saving the IP Address in the Print Server
Print Server User Manual 22
2.6 ... via ARP/PING
ARP Table The assignment of the IP address to the hardware address can be
done via the ARP table. The ARP table is an internal system file in
which the assignment is temporarily saved (about 15 min). This table
is administered by the ARP protocol.
By means of the 'arp' and 'ping' commands, you can save the IP
address in the print server. If the print server already has an IP
address, the 'arp' and 'ping' commands cannot be used to save a new
IP address.
However, an IP address from the address range (169.254.0.0/16)
which is reserved for ZeroConf can be overwritten by means of the
'arp' and 'ping' commands.
Use the 'arp' and 'ping' commands to save the IP address if your network
has no superordinate management of IP addresses (e.g. DHCP, BOOTP).
The 'arp' command is used for editing the ARP table. The 'ping'
command transfers a data packet containing the IP address to the
hardware address of the print server. If the data packet has been
successfully sent and received, the print server permanently saves
the IP address.
The implementation of the 'arp' and 'ping' command depends on the
system used. Read the documentation for your operating system.

Edit the ARP table:
Syntax:
arp -s
Example: arp -s 192.168.0.123 00-c0-eb-00-01-ff
Assign a new IP address to the print server:
Syntax:
ping
Example: ping 192.168.0.123
The separators within the hardware address that are used in this example correspond
to the Windows platform.
