Configure H Jetdirect network printer

by hgreene77 . Updated 22 years, 9 months ago

How do I configure IP address on a printer attached to HP JetDirect 175x device?

I cannot seem to get the jetdirect device to print out the IP configuration. If I could get the IP address of printer, I could telnet to it, etc. My problem is figuring out the initial IP address assignment.

Someone suggested holding down the test button on the jetdirect device. Did this, did not work. Maybe I am missing the exact sequence. Pls advise steps. Once, stumbled on printing out IP config. It showed initializing, with no ip address assigned, yet. How can I get the IP printout, again?

The attached printer is HP 1200c LaserJet. It is connected via USB cable to the Jetdirect device, which in turns connects via patch cable to LAN (via Netgear unmanaged switch).
