Networking Parameters
The following parameter names can be used only with the network application versions 40 and above.
Any changes made using the setvar command will not take effect until the printer’s power has been cycled
or the device.reset command is issued.
ip.bootp.enable
type: getvar; setvar
This parameter will turn BOOTP on or off. BOOTP is a method for acquiring an IP address, netmask, and
gateway automatically on printer power-up. It requires a BOOTP server on the local network.
If you are using static ip addressing, BOOTP must be “off”.
NOTE: It is not recommended that BOOTP and DHCP both be enabled at the same time since this may increase the printer power-up
initialization time. If both BOOTP and DHCP are enabled at the same time, the printer will rst try BOOTP and if it does not receive
a response after several seconds, it will then try DHCP. You should contact your network administrator to determine whether your
network supports either BOOTP or DHCP and enable only the proper parameter on the printer.
getvar result The current BOOTP setting.
Example
Description Instructs the printer to respond with the current BOOTP setting
Syntax ! U1 “getvar” “ip.bootp enable”
Result “off”
setvar choices
“on” – Printer will use BOOTP to get its IP information on startup
“off” – Printer will not use BOOTP
Default “off”
Example
Description Turn the BOOTP feature on
Syntax ! U1 setvar “ip.bootp.enable” “on”
Result On power-up, the printer will use the BOOTP protocol to receive
its IP settings from a network server
