external_wired.ip.protocol

external_wired.ip.protocol

This command configures the IP addressing method used by the external wired print server.

Setvar

To instruct the printer to configure the IP addressing method used by the external wired print server:
! U1 setvar "external_wired.ip.protocol" "value"
Values
  • "bootp"
     uses the standard bootp addressing method to obtain an IP address and configuration
  • "dhcp"
     uses the standard dhcp addressing method to obtain an IP address and configuration for a server specified period of time
  • "rarp"
     uses the standard rarp addressing method to obtain an IP address
  • "glean"
     uses the IP address from a PING packet that is sent to its hardware address (unicast address)
  • "permanent"
     uses static values assigned through other commands
  • "all"
     tries all of the dynamic addressing methods, not permanent, to obtain an IP address
Default
"all"

Getvar

To return the IP addressing method used by the external print server:
! U1 getvar "external_wired.ip.protocol"
On SEH print server models PS102-Z or the PS105-Z, only the getvar command is supported.
Example
In this example, the
setvar
 result is the current programming language that the printer is using. 
! U1 setvar "external_wired.ip.protocol" "bootp"
What the

 value is set to is the
getvar
 result. In this example, the
