Requires the administrator to type the product MAC hardware address on the BOOTP server in order for the product to obtain an IP address from that server. Auto IP For Automatic IP address assignment. If neither a DHCP server nor a BOOTP server is present, this service allows the product to generate a unique IP address. Manual IP Manually configure the IP address on the print server by using the product control panel or the embedded Web server.
Telnet Set configuration parameters by using the default IP address to create a Telnet connection from your system to the HP Jetdirect print server. When configured, the print server saves the configuration when turned off and then turned on. RARP You can configure the print server to use RARP on UNIX and Linux systems. Use RARP to answer the print server's RARP request and supply the print server with the IP address. The RARP method allows you to only configure the IP address.

The workstation from which the configuration is made must be located on the same network segment as the HP Jetdirect print server.
