Using the arp and ping commands with HP Jetdirect print servers requires the following:
●
Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or UNIX system
configured for TCP/IP operation
●
Legacy default IP address of 192.0.0.192 on the print server
●
LAN hardware (MAC) address of the HP Jetdirect print server, specified on an HP Jetdirect
configuration page, or on a label attached to HP Jetdirect external print servers
NOTE:
You might need root privileges to run the
arp
command.
After an IP address is assigned using the
arp
and
ping
commands, use other tools such as Telnet,
the HP Embedded Web Server, or HP Web Jetadmin to configure other IP parameters.
To configure an HP Jetdirect print server, use the following commands:
arp -s <IP address> <LAN hardware address>
ping <IP address>
The
<IP address>
is the desired IP address assigned to the print server, and
<LAN hardware
address>
is the LAN hardware address of the print server. The
arp
command writes the entries to
the arp cache on the workstation. The
ping
command configures the IP address on the print server.
The LAN hardware address can require a specific format, as in the following examples:
●
Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows Server 2008
arp -s 192.168.45.39 00-01-E6-a2-31-98
ping 192.168.45.39
●
For UNIX
arp -s 192.168.45.39 00:01:E6:a2:31:98
ping 192.168.45.39
NOTE:
Once the IP address is set on the print server, additional
arp
and
ping
commands are
ignored. To again use
arp
and
ping
to configure the IP address, reset the print server to factory
values. See
Troubleshoot the HP Jetdirect print server on page 125
.
On UNIX systems, the
arp -s
command can vary between different systems.
Some BSD systems expect the IP address (or host name) in reverse order. Other systems require
additional parameters. See your system documentation for specific command formats.
If you are configuring an HP Jetdirect wireless print server, this section assumes that a wireless
network connection is established.
Use Telnet (IPv4)
This section describes how to configure the print server using Telnet.
