This has to be done so the [Zebra QL220+ printer][ql220] will get an IP
address from the [Motorola RFS6000][rfs6000] [DHCP server][dhcp]. The
default setting of broadcast packets doesn't work:

1. logon to the cli as admin
2. `enable`
3. `configure terminal`
4. `ip dhcp pool default` (change to the actual name of your DHCP pool)
5. *`unicast-enable`*
6. Hit `control-z`
7. `logout`
