Secondary WINS Server IP Address

This field specifies the IP address of the secondary WINS server. It is used as a backup to the Primary WINS
server address. If the Primary server is unavailable, the machine can still register itself with a secondary
server. If set to a non-zero value, the machine will contact this server to register its name with the Windows

®

Internet Name Service. If you have a primary WINS server, but no secondary WINS server, simply leave this
field blank.

Primary DNS Server IP Address

This field specifies the IP address of the primary DNS (Domain Name System) server.

Secondary DNS Server IP Address

This field specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS server. It is used as a backup to the Primary DNS

APIPA

The setting of On will cause the print server to automatically allocate a Link-Local IP address in the range

(169.254.1.0 - 169.254.254.255) when the print server cannot obtain an IP address through the
BOOT Method you have set (see BOOT Method on page 31). Choosing Off means the IP address doesn’t

change, when the print server cannot obtain an IP address through the BOOT Method you have set.
