If you are moving the print server to another IP network:
1. First, do one of the following:
■
Change the IP address to one usable on the new network: ( How to set the IP
address .) Verify the Subnet Mask and Default Gateway are usable with the new
network, or fix them.
■
Erase the current IP address and configure another address after you are
installed on the new network. (
How to set the IP address .) Verify the Subnet
Mask and Default Gateway are usable with the new address, or fix them.
2. Then reset the print server to factory defaults.
3. Finally, do one of the following:
■
If the print server was configured using BOOTP or DHCP, edit the appropriate
system files with updated settings. If the current BOOTP server is not reachable,
you may need to locate and configure a different BOOTP server.
■
If the IP address and other parameters were manually set, then manually
reconfigure them. (

Default Gateway .
Performing a cold reset (to factory defaults):
Once you configure the print server, the configuration settings are retained in memory unless you
manually reset them to factory defaults, as follows:
1. Unplug the power module from the back of the print server.
2. While holding down the test button on the back of the print server, plug the power module
back into the print server and continue to hold down the test button button for about five
seconds. Any user-configured settings will be erased.
