Installing the Hardware

Installing the Ethernet Cable

To connect the NIC to a 10baseT or 100baseTX Fast Ethernet network, you need a 10 or 100 MB capable Ethernet hub/switch with at least one unused port installed on your network and an appropriate length of RJ45 modular cable. Category 5 cabling is necessary for 100 MB operation.

1.Connect one end of the RJ45 network cable to the Ethernet port on the NIC.

2.Connect the other end of the RJ45 network cable to the Ethernet port on your hub or switch.

The NIC automatically senses if it is connected to a 10BaseT or a 100BaseTX network.

Printing a Test Page

You need to print a test page to verify that the NIC is installed correctly. Use the test button on the NIC face plate to make a test print. The test button is located between the Ethernet port and the serial port.

NOTE: The test button is also used to reset the NIC to factory defaults. Press the switch, and hold it in for at least 5 seconds to reset the NIC to factory defaults.

To print a test page:

1.Make sure that the printer is connected to a functioning network. If the NIC does not detect protocols such as AppleTalk, it automatically disables that protocol.

2.Turn on the power to the printer.

3.Locate the test button on the NIC faceplate.
