IP addressing
Service name
Description
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
For automatic IP address assignment. The DHCP server
provides the printer with an IP address. Generally, no user
intervention is required for the printer to obtain an IP address
from a DHCP server.
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)
For automatic IP address assignment. The BOOTP server
provides the printer with an IP address. Requires the
administrator to input a device's MAC hardware address on the
BOOTP server for the printer to obtain an IP address from that
server.
Auto IP
For automatic IP address assignment. If neither a DHCP
server nor a BOOTP server is present, the printer uses this
service to generate a unique IP address.
