3 Make sure that BOOTP is enabled.
You can do this from the printer control panel.
To enable BOOTP from the printer control panel, follow
these steps:
a Turn the printer power On (|).
b Use the printer control panel to find the menu item SETUP NETWORK
MENU. Consult your printer documentation to learn the menu path
for your specific printer, or scroll through the control panel menus
until you find it.
c Select SETUP NETWORK MENU.
d Select Enable BOOTP.
e Select Yes.
If you are instructed to do so, turn the printer off.
f When you are finished, select Ready.
4 Set up the printer’s hostname (network name) in the computer. To do
so, simply define the printer’s IP name and address in the /etc/hosts file
or on the name server.
This IP address and hostname must match those you set earlier in the
BOOTP file. You may want to use a hostname that is meaningful in your
environment (for example, a name that identifies the printer’s location).
