TCP/IP Configuration
Introduction
To operate properly on a TCP/IP network, the HP Jetdirect projector server
must be configured with valid TCP/IP network configuration parameters, such
as an IP address that is valid for your network. For general information on
TCP/IP networks, see
Server-Based and Manual TCP/IP Configuration
When in a factory-default state and powered on, the HP Jetdirect projector
server will try to obtain its TCP/IP configuration using a server-based method,
such as BOOTP/TFTP, DHCP/TFTP, or RARP. These server-based methods
are described later in this chapter. Depending on the server model, up to two
minutes may be used for these methods. If configuration is not successful, a
default IP address will be assigned.
The server may also be configured manually. Manual-based tools include a
Web browser, arp and ping commands (when the default IP address is
192.0.0.192), or SNMP-based management software. TCP/IP configuration
values assigned manually will be retained when powered off/on.
The server can be reconfigured to use either server-based or manual
configuration of TCP/IP settings at any time.
To identify the IP address that is configured on the projector server at any
time, see the IP address displayed in the projector’s on-screen Help menu.
