***Specify Print Server IP Address (Option 3)
This option allows you to select the method the Net-
work Print Server uses to obtain its IP address or to
set a permanent IP address. If the Network Print
Server has been configured to use a permanent IP
address, a DHCP, RARP or BOOTP server does not
need to be available when the Network Print Server is
powered on.
If you change the IP address, the change remains
undetected until the Network Print Server is reset or is
powered off and on.
Remember, when choosing a permanent IP address:
•
The IP address must follow the format
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a number
between 0 and 255.
•
If you select an invalid IP address you may not be
able to access the Network Print Server.
•
You can also use OkiNet for TCP/IP or OkiNet for
NetWare to set a permanent IP address.
Note: If you select an invalid IP address you may
not be able to access the Network Print Server.
Use this option with care!
Specify the Subnet Mask for Your Network (Option
4)
If your network environment includes subnets, you will
want to set the subnet mask.
The subnet mask must follow the format
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a number
between 0 and 255.
