Novell NetWare frame type parameters

The HP Jetdirect print server automatically selects a NetWare frame type. Select a frame type manually only when the print server selects an incorrect frame type. To identify the frame type chosen by the HP Jetdirect print server, print a configuration page from the control panel.

See Understanding and printing the configuration page.

The following frame types are supported:

zEthernet_802.3

zEthernet_II
