Saving the IP Address in the TPR
Why IP Addresses?
An IP address is used to address network devices in an IP network.
TCP/IP network protocols require the storing of the IP address in the
TPR so that the device can be addressed within the network.
How Does the TPR
Obtain IP
Addresses?
TPR are shipped without an IP address. The TPR is able to assign itself
an IP address during the initial installation. Boot protocols are used
to assign an IP address automatically to the TPR. Upon delivery, the
boot protocols 'BOOTP' and 'DHCP' are enabled.
Once the TPR is connected to the network, it checks whether an IP
address can be obtained via the boot protocols BOOTP or DHCP. If
this is not the case, the TPR-10 assigns itself an IP address via
ZeroConf from the address range (169.254.0.0/16) which is reserved
for ZeroConf.
Once the TPR-10 has automatically received an IP address via a boot
protocol, you can save a freely definable IP address in the TPR-10.
The assigned IP address of the TPR can be determined and modified
via the software tool 'InterCon-NetTool'.
Assign the former IP address of the printer to the TPR-10.
Configure the printer to DHCP (if you fail to do so, there will be
no functionality).
Different methods for the assignment of the IP address are described
in the following.
