There are five ways to set the printer’s IP address and other IP parameters: 

■

■

 This method uses RARP (Reverse 

Address Resolution Protocol),  BOOTP (Boot Parameter Protocol), or 
DHCP.  When turned on or reset, the printer receives its IP addressing 
information from a boot server.  See “Setting IP parameters: RARP or 
BOOTP” on page 65 or “Setting IP parameters: DHCP” on page 66.

■

  This method can be used on hosts that do not have RARP, BOOTP, or 

DHCP.  Use a Tektronix-provided shell script to prepare a configuration 
file.  When you send the file to the printer, the IP addressing information is 
stored in the printer’s memory, where the printer reads it when reset.  See 
“Setting IP parameters: PostScript utility file (UNIX only)” on page 71.        

■

Printer-based printer configuration (using arp table entry; address 
gleaning).  

You can enter the printer’s Ethernet address and IP address in 

your host’s arp table, then send a ping command to the printer, and the 
printer will take it’s IP address from the ping packet.  See “Setting IP 
parameters: arp table entry (address gleaning)” on page 74.

■

 After setting the printer’s IP address by one of 

the other three methods listed here, you can perform the rest of the TCP/IP 
configuration using PhaserLink software, if you have a World Wide Web 
browser.  See “Setting IP parameters: PhaserLink Printer Management 
Software” on page 73.

When two or more IP addressing methods are used simultaneously, the printer uses 
the first address that it successfully obtains. 

PC and Macintosh users can also set IP parameters using PostScript utility 
files; see the README files on the printer’s CD-ROM.  The PC README 
file is in the UTILS directory; the Macintosh README file is in the Network 
Utilities folder.
