Chapter 1 Interfaces

DIP Switches

ADAPTER, On the back of the printer, you will find a small window where you WLAN can access two DIP switches labeled 1 and 2 (see Figure 2 on

ADAPTER page 24). The functions of the DIP switches are explained in Table 7.

NOTE: The DIP switches are not marked with “on” or “off” labels. Instead, the status of the switch is indicated by its position, up or down. If the interface card has been installed upside down (i.e., the DIP switches are to the left of the cable connector), your DIP switch positions will be reversed and the settings inverted.

NIC boots up using the settings in flash memory rather than the

 

 

default settings.

Factory default. With the DIP switches in this configuration, the NIC

Default IP. With the DIP switches in this configuration, the NIC boots

 

 

up with factory default settings. However, the stored settings in flash

 

 

memory are intact. Setting DIP switch 2 to “on” does not clear any

 

 

settings stored in flash memory; it boots the unit in a different state

 

 

with the settings in flash memory temporarily ignored.
