Changing IP's on HP 4050s

Draco · 2001-09-26 09:22:41

Anyone know how to change the IP address on a HP 4050? I can't use the web interface as no one knows the password.

Use the menu button on the printer and go to the jetdirect menu.
Can't remember the specifics but theres a config network option and then a config tcpip option. This is from memory so it may not be spot on but you should be able to figure it out from there.

Got it eventually - I cleared the pasword by doing a cold reset (hold down the go button as you turn the printer on), had jet direct admin find it and reset everything using that. You can also set the ip through the menu, but it's as awkward as fu<k to do.
