TCP/IP configuration tools
Depending on your all-in-one and operating system, the all-in-one can be configured with valid TCP/
IP parameters for your network in the following ways:
●Using Software—You can use the HP ToolboxFX 
software, or you can use the all-in-one
Embedded Web server by entering the IP address in your Web browser.
● BOOTP—You can download the data from a network-based server using BOOTP (Bootstrap
Protocol) each time the all-in-one is turned on. The BOOTP daemon, bootpd, must be...

Windows systems
The all-in-one supports IP configuration from a Windows NT/2000/XP DHCP server. This section
describes how to set up a pool, or “scope,” of IP addresses that the Windows server can assign or
lease to any requester. When configured for BOOTP  or DHCP operation and powered on, the all-in-
one automatically sends a BOOTP or DHCP request for its IP configuration. If properly set up, a
Windows DHCP server will respond with the print server’s IP configuration data.
NOTE This information is...

each all-in-one, perform the following steps in the Add Reserved Clients window to set up a
reservation for that all-in-one:
a.Type the selected IP address.
b. Obtain the MAC address or hardware address from the configuration page, and type this
address in the Unique Identifier box.
c. Type the client name (any name is acceptable).
d. Select  Add to add the reserved client. To delete a reservation, in the DHCP Manager
window, select  Scope and select  Active Leases . In the Active Leases window, click on...

Windows 2000 Server
To set DHCP on a Windows 2000 Server
To set up a DHCP scope on a Windows 2000 server, perform the following steps:
1. Run the Windows 2000 DHCP manager utility. Click  Start, then select Settings and Control
Panel . Open the  Administrative Tools  folder and run the DHCP utility.
2. In the DHCP window, locate and select your  Windows 2000 server in the DHCP tree. If your
server is not listed in the tree, select  DHCP and click the  Action menu to add the server.
3. After selecting...

NOTEThe MAC address for your all-in-one is available on the network
configuration page.
d. Under Supported types, select  DHCP only, then click Add.
NOTE Selecting Both or BOOTP only will result in a configuration through BOOTP
due to the sequence in which the all-in-one initiates configuration protocol requests.
e. Specify another reserved client, or click  Close. The reserved clients added will be
displayed in the Reservations folder for this scope.
12. Close the DHCP manager utility.

Using BOOTP
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) provides a convenient way to automatically \
configure the all-in-one for
TCP/IP network operation. When powered on, the all-in-one sends a BOOTP request message onto
the network. A properly configured BOOTP server on  the network will respond with a message that
contains basic network configuration data for the all-in-one. The BOOTP server’s response may also
identify a file that contains extended configuration data for the print server. The TFTP protocol (which
is...

BOOTP on UNIX
This section describes how to configure the print server using BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) services
on UNIX servers. BOOTP is used to download network configuration data from a server to the all-in-
one over the network.
Systems that use Network  Information Service (NIS)
If your system uses NIS, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP service before
performing the BOOTP configuration steps. Refer to your system documentation.

Table 9-5  Tags supported in a BOOTP/DHCP boot file
OptionDescription
NodenameThe name of the peripheral. This name identifies an entry
point to a list of parameters for a specific peripheral.
Nodename must be the first field in an entry. (In the example
above, nodename is “picasso”.)
htThe hardware type tag. For the all-in-one, set this to  ether
for Ethernet. This tag must precede the  ha tag.
vmThe BOOTP report format tag (required). Set this parameter
to rfc1048 .
haThe hardware address tag. The...

Configuring for LPD printing
 
Introduction
The all-in-one contains an LPD (Line Printer Daemon) Server to support\
 LPD printing. This chapter
describes how to configure the all-in-one for use with various systems that support LPD printing.
These instructions include:
●LPD on UNIX Systems
● Configuring BSD-based UNIX systems using LPD
● Configuring print queues using the SAM utility (HP-UX systems)
● LPD on Windows NT/2000 systems
NOTE
For other systems not listed, refer to your operating system...

About LPD
Line printer daemon (LPD) refers to the protocol and programs associated with line-printer spooling
services that may be installed on various TCP/IP systems.
Some of the widely used systems which are supported by your all-in-one using LPD include:
● Berkeley-based (BSD) UNIX systems
● HP-UX
● Solaris
● IBM AIX
● Linux
● Windows NT/2000/XP
The UNIX configuration examples in this section  show the syntax for BSD-based UNIX systems. The
syntax for your system may vary. See  your system...
