Option Description
ha The hardware address tag. The hardware (MAC)
address is the link-level, or station address of the
printer. It can be found on the printer network
configuration page as the HARDWARE
ADDRESS.
ip The IP address tag (required). This address will
be the printer's IP address.
sm The subnet mask tag. The subnet mask will be
used by the printer to identify the portions of an
IP address that specify the network/subnetwork
number and the host address.
gw The gateway IP address tag. This address
identifies the IP address of the default gateway
(router) that the printer will use for
communications with other subnets.
ds DNS (Domain Name System) server’s IP
address tag. Only a single name server can be
specified.
lg The syslog server’s IP address tag. It specifies
the server that the printer sends syslog
messages to.
hn The host name tag. This tag does not take a
value but causes the BOOTP daemon to
download the host name to the printer. The host
name will be printed on the printer network
configuration page, or returned an SNMP
sysName request by a network application.
dn Domain name tag. Specifies the domain name
for the printer (for example, support.hp.com). It
does not include the host name; it is not the Fully
Qualified Domain Name (such as
printer1.support.hp.com).
tr DHCP T1 timeout, specifying the DHCP lease
renewal time (seconds).
tv DHCP T2 timeout, specifying the DHCP lease
rebind time (seconds).
