Item Description
DNS Suffixes (IPv4/IPv6) Printer domain names. You can create and store a DNS suffix list on the print server
to assist in resolving the printer's host name with its IP address. (FQDN consists of a
domain name appended to a host name. FQDNs are used, for example, by DNS
servers to resolve an IP address associated with a device.) The DNS suffix list can
contain up to 32 entries. DNS suffix entries can contain up to 256 alphanumeric
characters and periods.
To add an entry to the suffix list, enter a domain name (text string) in the field next to
the Add button, and then click Add. To delete an entry from the list, select it, and then
click Delete.
WINS (IPv4 only) Preferred and alternate WINS server on your IPv4 network. Like DNS, WINS provides
IP address and name resolution services for network computers and devices.
Preferred (Primary): IP address of the preferred WINS server.
Alternate (Secondary): IP address to use if the preferred WINS Server is unavailable.
Bonjour Bonjour service name (previously listed as Multicast Domain Name System [mDNS
Service Name]), or the assigned Bonjour domain name.
● Bonjour Service Name: Used to resolve a particular device or service if socket
information (such as the IP address) changes from session to session. The name
is persistent.
The default service name is the printer model and the last six digits of the LAN
hardware (MAC) address. Enter up to 64 alphanumeric characters.
●
Bonjour Domain Name: (Read-only parameter.) Bonjour domain name assigned
to the device, in the form <host name>.local. If a host name is not assigned, the
default host name NPIxxxxxx is used, where xxxxxx are the last 6 digits of the
LAN hardware (MAC) address.
TCP/IP(v4) tab
Use the TCP/IP(v4) tab to configure basic IPv4 settings on the print server. For additional
parameters, see the Advanced tab.
Table 4-6 TCP/IP(v4) tab
Item Description
IP Configuration Method Method that the HP Jetdirect print server uses for its IP configuration parameters: BOOTP
(default), DHCP, Manual, or Auto IP.
BOOTP or DHCP IP parameters are automatically configured by a BOOTP or DHCP server
each time the print server is turned on.
Manual Enter IP parameters using this Web page or using other available tools.
Auto IP A unique link-local address 169.254.x.x is assigned.
For more information, see
TCP/IP configuration on page 15.
IP Address Manually assign the IP address on the HP Jetdirect print server.
This IP address uniquely identifies a node on a TCP/IP network. Duplicate IP addresses on a
TCP/IP network are not allowed.
