EIO X Jetdirect submenu

The EIO (enhanced input/output) submenu appears only when an EIO device is installed in an EIO slot on the printer (such as an HP Jetdirect print server). The items in the menu depend on the particular accessory product installed. If the printer contains an HP Jetdirect print server EIO card, you can configure basic networking parameters using the EIO menu. These and other parameters can also be configured through HP Web Jetadmin or other network configuration tools (such as by using Telnet or browsing the embedded Web server).

For more information about the EIO submenu, see the documentation that came with the EIO Jetdirect card.
