using ARP/Ping:

Windows

1. Open a Command Prompt and enter the following commands:

2. The host will return

reply from 192.168.3.191

, or a similar message. This indicates that

the address has been set and that communication is established.

3. Next, log in to the print server’s web pages ( - See page 12) and define the

Default Router and

Subnet Mask of your network: choose Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | TCP/IP.
DHCP, Auto-IP, BOOTP and RARP (...Enabled) must first be set to No!

UNIX/Linux, Mac OS X

1. Open a Terminal window and enter the following commands:

2. The host will return

192.168.3.191 is alive,

or a similar message. This indicates that

the address has been set and that communication is established.

3. Next, log in to the print server’s web pages ( - See page 12) and define the

Default Router and

Syntax

Example

1. arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address>

arp -s 192.168.3.191 00-40-8c-18-1c-f0

2. ping <IP address>

ping 192.168.3.191

Syntax

Example

1. arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address> temp

arp -s 192.168.3.191 00:40:8c:18:1c:f0 temp

2. ping <IP address>

ping 192.168.3.191

•

The Ethernet Address/MAC address is the same as the serial number, found on the print server’s underside label.
Enter the Ethernet Address in the same format as in the examples above.

•

Setting the IP address with arp and ping is only possible during the first ten minutes after re-booting the
print server. Re-boot the print server by disconnecting and then re-connecting its power supply.

•

When you execute the ping command for the first time, you may experience a significantly longer response
time than usual.

•

You need root privileges on your UNIX/Linux and Mac system in order to execute the arp command (refer to
the User’s Manual for more information).

•

Use the command man arp to get a list of arp commands in UNIX/Linux.
