Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using RARP. 

Append the following line to your Ethernet Address table. This is typically 

located in the 

/etc/ethers

 file:

1. Update, if necessary, your host table and alias name databases as required 

by your system.

2. If it is not already running, start the RARP daemon. This is typically 

performed using the 

rarpd -a

 command.

3. Restart the print server to download the IP address.

4. You have now set the IP address of the print server. Continue to 

Network Printers available for printing on your PC” on page 21.

<Ethernet address> <host name>

00:40:8c:10:00:86 npsname

•  If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply replace the host name entry 

with the IP address in the example above.

•  If you are using IBM AIX, you will probably not have access to a RARP daemon. If this is the 

case, you can use either ARP (see “Set the IP Address using ARP in UNIX/Linux and Mac OS 
X” on page 20) or BOOTP (see “Set the IP Address using BOOTP in UNIX/Linux” on page 19).

•  You have to restart the print server to download the IP address.
