Configure network settings
You can view and configure the network settings from the HP Designjet Utility. Under Windows, select the
Admin tab, then Network Settings. Under Mac OS X, select Network Settings. The following settings are
available:
●
IP Configuration method: specify the way to set an IP address, selecting BOOTP, DHCP, Auto IP or
Manual.
●
Host name: specify an IP name for the network device. The name may contain up to 32 ASCII characters.
●
IP address: specify the IP address on the print server. Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP network are
not allowed.
NOTE: If you change the current IP address and click Apply, the browser loses the current connection
to the print server because it is pointing to the old address. To reconnect, browse to the new IP address.
●
Subnet mask: specify a subnet mask, which is a 32-bit number applied to an IP address to determine
which bits specify the network and subnet and which bits uniquely specify the node.
●
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
print server.
●
Domain name: specify the name of the DNS domain in which the print server resides (for example,
support.hp.com).
NOTE: The domain name does not include the host name: it is not the fully qualified domain name,
such as printer1.support.hp.com.
●
Idle timeout: specify the number of seconds that an idle connection is allowed to remain open; 30 is the
default value. If set to zero, the timeout is disabled and TCP/IP connections remain open until closed by
the other node (such as a workstation) on the network
●
Default IP: specify the IP address to use when the print server is unable to obtain an IP address from
the network when powered on or when reconfigured 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 configure the same network settings from the front panel, select the Connectivity menu icon
, then
Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet > Modify configuration.
