Communications (continued)

PARALLEL PORT B

Same as Parallel Port A, for an optional Ethernet connection. If not present, this displays ‘NOT INSTALLED’ when accessed.

þ Note: If the ‘LOCKED’ message appears when attempting to access the NIC ADAPTER menu, the printer may have active print requests or multiple users may be trying to access these parameters (for example, during simultaneous telenet sessions).

NIC ADAPTER

 

Network Interface Card Adapter (optional).

 

 

 

 

If not present, this displays ‘NOT

 

 

 

 

INSTALLED’ when accessed.

 

 

 

 

 

NIC

Adapter

firmware

version

 

 

 

 

V3.6/5(010212) DM or later is required to

 

 

 

 

support the described functionality.

 

 

 

 

 

After making changes to these parameters,

 

 

 

 

save the changes, exit the menu system, and

 

 

 

 

cycle the printer’s power ‘Off’ and ‘On’ for

 

 

 

 

the changes to take effect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

þ Note: With the NIC Adapter installed, a

 

 

 

 

boot process (taking up to two minutes,

 

 

 

 

depending upon the configuration) must

 

 

 

 

be completed before the printer

 

 

 

 

recognizes the option as ‘installed’. During

 

 

 

 

this time, the NIC Adapter will not be

 

 

 

 

accessible or

configurable;

"NOT

 

 

 

 

INSTALLED" will be indicated when in the

 

 

 

 

menu system or on a Configuration Label.

 

 

 

 

After the process, you will be able to

 

 

 

 

configure the options provided using the

 

 

 

 

menu system.
