    i used to configure it from windows, before i read the tricks in linux.
    here's my notes (recall there is a reset button on the box, if you've
    misconfigured or don't remember it)

    how to reset the print server:
     
    ftp to the old address, login: ps?????? (the device name at the bottom)
                            no password, just hit enter
      passive <-- make sure it's not passive mode anymore
      get CONFIG
      edit CONFIG <- edit the IP,NM,GW etc.etc.
      put CONFIG
      get RESET this will trigger resetting with the new config file
      get IPRESET <- not sure if this is needed
