Modular I/O Configuration

The printers are equipped with a modular I/O slot. A modular I/O interface card can be plugged into that slot to increase the number of interfaces available.

A modular I/O card can provide increased printer performance when printing from a network. In addition, a modular I/O card provides the ability to place the printer anywhere on the network. This eliminates the need to attach the printer directly to a server or a workstation, and enables you to place your HP LaserJet printer closer to your network users.

When you install a MIO card, you may need to

 

perform a Cold Reset to reinitialize the printer’s

 

control panel.

The HP JetDirect Card allows these printers to operate in multiple operating system networks.

To determine the appropriate MIO solution for a specific host system/application environment, refer to the latest edition of the “HP Peripherals Connectivity Solutions Guide.”
