which comes with the DHCP Server.
In order to use the DHCP’s IP address auto assignment function, you
must set the DHCP Request of this network card to ON. (This is set to
OFF at factory shipping.)
The DHCP Request ON\OFFcan be set either in the printer’s level 2 menu
or using the OkiView utility or the Web server/Telnet.
It will take about 30 seconds to complete rewriting of the setting change.
Then, set the printer to OFF-LINE and then to ON-LINE, using the ON-
LINE button of the printer or turn the printer’s power off and on again.
Caution: If both DHCP and RARP are set to ON, a serious error will
result on network. Never set both to ON.

3.2.7.1 IP address and host name in the host table
Using the following procedure, add the IP address and the host name
(printer name) to the host table:
1
Get the IP address which is not used from the network adminis-
trator and determine a unique name for this network card.
2
Add the IP address and the host name to the host table of the

ing the following line to /etc/hosts file:
<IP address> <host name>
3
Update the data base. If the system uses data base such as
Yellow Pages (YP) and Network Information Services (NIS), these
must be updated. In almost all the UNIX systems, you can do
this by entering the following commands:
cd /var/yp
make
