To set up the printer for DNS, supply an IP domain name and up to two DNS
name server IP addresses. There are three ways to set up the printer:
■ BOOTP (UNIX). See “Setting IP parameters: RARP or BOOTP” on
page 61.
■ DHCP (Windows). See “Setting IP parameters: DHCP” on page 62.
■ With TCP/IP, you can use PhaserLink. See the next topic, “Setting up
the printer for DNS using PhaserLink software”.
