HP DesignJet Z2600 Z5600 PostScript Printer - User guide

With the HP DesignJet Utility under Windows, select the Settings tab, then Network Settings. Under Mac OS X,
select Conguration > Network Settings.
The following settings are available.
●
IP Conguration method: Specify the way to set an IP address, selecting BOOTP, DHCP, Auto IP or Manual.
●
Host name: Specify the IP name of the printer. The name may contain up to 32 ASCII characters.
●
IP address: Specify the IP address of the printer. Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP network will cause
communication to fail.
TIP: Make sure that the combination of IP address, subnet mask and default gateway is valid. If these
three elds are inconsistent, you may not be able to connect to the printer at all until you x the problem
from the front panel.
TIP: If you change the current IP address and click Apply, the browser loses the current connection to the
printer because it is pointing to the old address. To reconnect, browse to the new IP address.
●
Subnet mask: Specify a subnet mask, which determines which bits specify the network and which bits
uniquely specify the node within the network.
●
Default gateway: Specify the IP address of a router or computer that is used to connect to other networks
or sub-networks. If none exist, use the IP address of the computer or the IP address of the printer.
●
Domain name: Specify the name of the DNS domain in which the printer resides (for example,
support.hp.com).
NOTE: The domain name does not include the host name: it is not the fully qualied domain name, such
as printer1.support.hp.com.
●
Idle timeout: Specify the time that an idle connection is allowed to remain open when a remote computer is
waiting for the printer. The default value is 280 seconds. If set to zero, the timeout is disabled and the
connection is allowed to remain open indenitely.
●
Default IP: Specify the IP address to use when the printer is unable to obtain an IP address from the
network when powered on or when recongured to use BOOTP or DHCP.
●
Send DHCP requests: Specify whether DHCP requests are transmitted when a legacy default IP address or a
default Auto IP is assigned.
To congure the same network settings from the front panel, press , then , then Connectivity > Network
connectivity
> Gigabit Ethernet > Modify conguration.
You have various other options available from the Connectivity > Network connectivity > Advanced menu.
●
I/O timeout: Specify the time that an idle connection is allowed to remain open when the printer is waiting
for a remote computer. The default value is 30 seconds. If set to zero, the timeout is disabled and the
connection is allowed to remain open indenitely.
●
Allow SNMP: Specify whether SNMP is permitted.
●
Embedded Web Server > Allow EWS: Specify whether the Embedded Web Server is enabled.
