address as the name). To do this, go to the OS/2 System
icon, open the Command Prompts folder, and double
click on the OS/2 Window icon. Use the OS/2 editor and
add the an entry similar to the following:
192.189.207.77 xps
Substitute the name of the TROY XCD print server (any
unique name will do) and the desired IP address in place
of
xps
and
192.189.207.77
in the above example.
3. While still at the OS/2 prompt, use the following
command to enter the IP address into the TROY XCD
print server:
arp -s xps 00:40:17:00:ed:d6 temp
Again, substitute your actual name and IP address for
xps
and
192.189.207.77
, and replace the
00:40:17:00:ed:d6
with the actual Ethernet hardware
address of the TROY XCD print server (which can be
found on the label affixed to the TROY XCD print
server box or via the printer self-test; note that you
should use colons rather than hyphens to separate the
bytes of the hardware address). The IP address will be
set when you ping the print server in the next step.
Important: You must be on the same Ethernet
segment (that is, there cannot be a router between the
TROY XCD print server and the OS/2 system). If there
is a router, you may use BOOTP or other methods
described in Chapter 4 to enter the IP address. Also,
this method only works the first time the TROY XCD
print server is configured. If the TROY XCD print
server already has an IP address, you may use
