SNTP
The printer clock can be synchronized with a NTP server clock using the Simple
Network Time Protocol (SNTP). To change the SNTP settings, use the sntp com-
mand. Confirm with the network administrator that the NTP server settings are
correct.
Limitation
❒ SNTP supports the NTP servers running xnptd V3 and V4.

❖ NTP Server Address Configuration
You can specify the IP address of the NTP server.
msh> sntp server IP_address

❖ Interval Configuration
You can specify the interval at which the printer synchronizes with the oper-
ator-specified NTP server.
msh> sntp interval polling_time
Note
❒ The factory default setting is 3600 seconds.
❒ You can set the interval from 16 to 16384 seconds.
❒ If you set 0, the printer synchronizes with the NTP server only when you
turn the printer on. After that, the printer does not synchronize with the
NTP server.

❖ Time-zone Configuration
You can specify the time difference between the printer clock and the NTP
server clock.
msh> sntp timezone +/-hour_time
Example: To set the time-zone difference to +8 hours:
msh> sntp timezone +08:00
Note
❒ The time is in 24-hour notation.
