Network-Connect

In this configuration, the printer connects to the network via direct attachment to an external print server such as an HP JetDirect EX Plus, 150X, or EX Plus3. This configuration provides increased performance, location-flexibility and better printer status information.

As shown in the table below, newer versions of HP JetDirect EX Plus, 150X, and EX Plus3 print servers provide optimum printer-related status messages. If you have an older print server, you may want to upgrade the firmware (flash memory). To determine the firmware version and upgrade information for your HP JetDirect EX Plus and EX Plus3 print server, refer to your HP JetDirect Software Installation guide. The HP JetDirect 150X was not designed to provide this upgrade capability.
