Tcp/Ip Setup In Windows 95/98 And Windows Nt - NEC 4400 - SuperScript Color Laser Printer User Manual

TCP/IP Setup in Windows 95/98 and
Windows NT 4.0
First, Install the TCP/IP Protocol
1. In Windows, open the Network control panel.
2. If TCP/IP Protocol is not installed, add it, and configure
the workstation's TCP/IP settings.
3. Restart. The new protocols and services will not be
available until the system is restarted.
Second, Assign the IP Address and Other TCP/IP
Parameters to the 4400N
If you have a DHCP server, the 4400N will retrieve an IP
address automatically from the network server when you
turn on the printer. Here we provide instructions for using
BOOTP 32 to set the IP address manually. You can also use
ARP/ping commands if you prefer.
note:
For other ways to set the IP address, see page 73.
1. Insert the SuperScript 4400 Series CD.
2. Launch BOOTPL32
In Windows press the Start button, select Programs, then
SuperScript 4400, and then select BOOTPL32.
or Type E:\BOOTP\BOOTPL32.EXE
note:
If you have not yet installed BOOTPL32, it is
available on the SuperScript 4400 Series CD , using the
Custom/Network Client installation.
3. Select Configure from the Admin menu.
a. Enter the IP address to assign to the 4400N.
b. Enter the subnet mask.
c. Enter the default gateway address (if applicable) or
leave blank.
d. Enter the hardware address of the 4400N. This
address is listed on the Network Settings page under
Network Address, for example,
00:40:af:c9:f0:d8. Enter it exactly as it appears
on the Network Settings page.
4. Click on Go to send the new settings to the 4400N.
After a few minutes (usually between 1 and 2 minutes, but
possibly up to 5 minutes on very large or busy networks), the
4400N will reset and print its Network Settings page. The
new IP settings will be listed in the TCP/IP Network
Information section of the Network Settings page.
If the new IP address does not appear on the Network
Settings page under "Protocol Address," you may have
entered the hardware address incorrectly in BOOTPL32.
Repeat Steps 2 and 3, and check the IP address on the new
Network Settings page.
The new IP address can also be verified in BootPL32 by
turning the printer off and on, and selecting Verify from the
Admin menu. It should report that the Unit is Active.
