6. From a workstation attached to this network segment, create
an ARP entry. The NIC IP address and hardware or MAC
address are needed. At the workstation, enter:
arp -s <ipaddress> <MACaddress>
ping <ipaddress>
7. Try to
ping
this IP address to see if the NIC can be seen on
your network. If the interface does not respond, verify you are
on the same network segment as the printer and that the ARP
entry was created.
8. Telnet into the NIC using the same IP address as above. Log
in as root with no password.
9. At system prompt, enter:
store tcpip from default
config http on
reset
NOTE: This will reset all TCP/IP settings to factory default and

10. Wait five minutes for the NIC to reset.
11. Power the printer off and then back on.
12. Wait for the “E-NET READY” message to display.
