Manually change the IP address of the print server (the hard way):

To change the IP address of your Print Server to some custom numbers,
boot up the Print Server and change four (4) items below.
(if the IP address is not correct, it may 5 minutes to boot up, apparently hangs on syslogd, this is normal g g , don't panic)
Thanks to g Michal Fraszek of Poland g who contributed to a patch in /etc/init.d/syslogd which solved the 5 minutes apparent hang problem.
The fix is to edit  /etc/init.d/sysklogd:
RCDLINKS="0,K16 1,K16 2,S00 3,S00 4,S00 5,S00 6,K16" becomes
RCDLINKS="0,K16 1,K16 S,S00 6,K16"
