Network Support

Installing an internal print server enables you to connect your printer to a local area network (LAN). The print server supports these network interfaces:

The Token-Ring print server conforms to IEEE 802.5 using either IBM Cabling System (STP) or unshielded twisted-pair cable, which meets the IBM Cabling System Type 3 Media Specification (UTP).

The Ethernet Combined 10BaseT and 10Base2 print server conforms to IEEE 802.3 with a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable for the 10BaseT and conforms to IEEE 802.3 with an RG58 coaxial cable for the 10Base2.
