Set the printers up with bootp/dhcp and then use the tftp
capability via [bootp] tag 144 to assign them a tftpboot file to
load parameters from. In this file, you can use access lists
to control what hosts have ability to connect to the printer.

If I recall, this is slightly documented in the installation
guide under bootp/dhcp.
