ping 203.66.191.12
At th e mean time, PrintSir’s IP will “temporarily” be set to
203.66.191.12 (will restore after reboot). Therefore, you need to run
your web browser to set a permanent IP address (refer to section 8.3.7
for detailed IP configuration).
6.3.2 DHCP
There are many Unix systems that support DHCP protocol, and
the procedures to configure the DHCP server database are different.
This manual does not describe the DHCP server configuration on the
Unix systems. It is highly recommended that the DHCP server should
be located on the same network as the PrintSir.
6.3.3 BOOTP
If you have the BOOTP daemon, bootpd, running on your UNIX
system that is accessible by the PrintSir, you can use the BOOTP
protocol to set up the IP address of the PrintSir. We recommend that

PrintSir. If you use Network Information Services (NIS) in your

services before doing the following BOOTP configuration. To rebuild
the NIS map, please refer to your system documentation.
To configure the IP address data for the BOOTP server, you will
need to log in the host of BOOTP server as the super user (root).
Perform the following steps to add address entries,
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the PrintSir’s IP
address. You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file, by
adding a line such as:
203.66.191.12 pserver
2. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/bootptab file, similar to the
following:
hostname:\
