Change the units of measurement

To change the units of measurement in the front-panel display, select the Setup menu icon

, then

Front panel options > Select units, and select English or Metric. By default the units are set to

metric.

Configure network settings

You can view and configure the network settings from the HP Utility. Under Windows, select the

Settings tab, then Network Settings. Under Mac OS, select Configuration > Network

Settings. The following settings are available.

IP Configuration method: specify the way to set an IP address, selecting BOOTP, DHCP,

Auto IP or Manual.

Host name: specify an IP name for the network device. The name may contain up to 32 ASCII

characters.

IP address: specify the IP address on the print server. Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP

network are not allowed.

NOTE:

If you change the current IP address and click Apply, the browser loses the current

connection to the print server because it is pointing to the old address. To reconnect, browse to the

new IP address.

Subnet mask: specify a subnet mask, which is a 32-bit number applied to an IP address to

determine which bits specify the network and subnet and which bits uniquely specify the node.

Default gateway: specify the IP address of a router or computer that is used to connect to other

networks or sub-networks. If none exist, use the IP address of the computer or the IP address of the

print server.

Domain name: specify the name of the DNS domain in which the print server resides (for

example, support.hp.com).

NOTE:

The domain name does not include the host name: it is not the fully qualified domain

name, such as printer1.support.hp.com.

Idle timeout: specify the number of seconds that an idle connection is allowed to remain open;

30 is the default value. If set to zero, the timeout is disabled and TCP/IP connections remain open

until closed by the other node (such as a workstation) on the network

Default IP: specify the IP address to use when the print server is unable to obtain an IP address

from the network when powered on or when reconfigured to use BOOTP or DHCP.

Send DHCP requests: specify whether DHCP requests are transmitted when a legacy default IP

address or a default Auto IP is assigned.

To configure the same network settings from the front panel, select the Connectivity menu icon

,

then Gigabit Ethernet or Jetdirect EIO > Modify configuration.

You have various other options available from the Connectivity menu icon.

USB: view information about the USB connection

Jetdirect EIO: view information, configure and reset the Jetdirect connection
