Configuring printer IP Address:
There are two versions of Ethernet board. Depends of what chipset is on the board, we will use
different software for changing IP address.
Latest version has ARM chipset, and we will use LKEtherconfig_v110 to configure IP address,
for ATMEL chipset we will use TCPIPCFG100v110.
Please see chipset locations on the board below:
