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

arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address> temp arp -s 192.168.3.191 00:40:8c:18:1c:f0 temp

• 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.
