Ways to configure an IP address on the print
server
The HP Install Network Printer Wizard for Windows—the installation
wizard supplied and recommended by HP—configures IP for you or
lets you do it. The wizard.
You can automatically configure IP over the network each time the
print server is powered up by using BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) or
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). Auto-configuration.
You can manually configure IP using various configuration and
management tools, such as the embedded web server. Configuration
tools.
If the print server does not receive its IP configuration within a couple
of minutes, a default IP address is automatically assigned (until
changed by another method): 192.0.0.192. This address is not a valid
IP address for your network but can be used to initially access the
print server using the embedded web server. However, to access it by
the default IP address, you must temporarily either isolate both your
computer and the print server to the same hub, or establish a route to
the print server and change the print server’s configuration to one that
matches your network. Then you can use the embedded web server on
that computer to access the print server by the default IP address—and
then reconfigure IP, or anything else.
