versions of UNIX, so refer to the workstation manuals for more
information.
1. Log in as root to the workstation.
2. If the printer does not have an IP address already
assigned, use the arp command to set a temporary IP
address.
Example: for IP address 192.68.20.127 and network
interface address 00:80:87:01:00:D2
# arp –s 192.168.20.127 00:80:87:01:00:D2 temp
The Ethernet address (MAC address)
00:80:87:01:00:D2 in the above example can be
determined from the Network Configuration report (see
page 9).
3. Use the ping command to confirm the connection with
the network interface.
Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127
# ping 192.168.20.127
If there is no reply, there is a problem with the
configuration of the IP address (the IP address has
already been set manually or dynamically), or with the
network. Reset the network interface settings to default
and try to set a temporary IP address.
If you still have the problem after resetting the network
interface, consult the network manager.
NOTE
If you do not have superuser rights, the network
manger should conduct the configuration.
