LAN Card Installation Guide

Menu screen

What the options mean

 

 

 

 

Determines the amount of time that the tcp connection will remain connected after the print job

 

 

has terminated.

 

Keep Alive Timer

 

 

 

 

3 minutes*

The allowable range is 2 to 10 minutes, and the factory default is 3 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This menu appears only if a 10/100Base-t Network Interface Card (NIC) is installed. There are

 

 

five different speed modes to allow compatibility with different systmes and networks.

 

 

Auto Select - factory default. Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to perform an automatic detection

 

 

 

scheme and configure itself to be one of the other allowable options.

 

Ethernet Speed

 

 

 

 

 

Auto Select*

10 Half Duplex - communicates at 10 megabytes per second using half duplex.

 

 

10 Full Duplex - communicates at 10 megabytes per second using full duplex.

 

 

 

 

100 Half Duplex - communicates at 100 megabytes per second using half duplex.

 

 

100 Full Duplex - communicates at 100 megabytes per second using full duplex. Determines

 

 

how the printer and/or NIC card respond when a job has been completed. The definition of

 

 

a complete job is also determined by this setting.

 

 

Standard - factory default. The NIC card responds to the host that the job is complete when

 

 

 

the entire print job has been accepted by the printer.

 

Job Control

 

 

 

 

 

Standard*

Enhanced - the NIC card responds to the host that the job is complete when the entire job

 

 

 

has not only been accepted by the printer, but also completely printed.

 

 

 

 

 

Off - without synchronization between the NIC and the printer. The NIC card is simply a

 

 

 

pass-trough and the printer tells the host when the job is complete.

 

 

 

 

 

Determines whether the printer processes incoming data when it is in an offline state.

 

 

Disable - factory default. The printer does not process data while offline.

 

 

 

Offline Process

 

 

 

 

Disable*

Enable - continues to process (but not print) the current network/parallel job while the printer

 

 

 

is offline until in a buffer-near-full state.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is the menu selection screen for the Ethernet Address option of the INTERFACES mode. Its

 

 

menu options are explained in the following five menu screen descriptions.

 

ETHERNET ADDRESS

 

 

 

 

IP Address

 

 

 

Subnet Mask

 

 

 

Gateway Address

 

 

 

MAC Address

 

 

 

DHCP

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This menu allows the IP Address to be set for the TCP/IP protocol in four three-digit segments

 

 

(SEG1 through SEG4). If the IP Address is assigned by Bootp, ARP, or DHCP it is dynamic and

 

 

read only.

 

 

The factory defaults for SEG1 through SEG4 are 000, 000, 000, and 000.

 

 

 

IP Address

 

 

 

 

XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

Note: When changing the IP Address, the printer resets the Network Interface Card (NIC) when

 

 

the printer is placed online. When the printer resets the NIC, the LCD displays DO NOT POWER

 

 

 

 

OFF. After the NIC has completed initialization, the LCD displays E-NET INIT to signal that the

 

 

NIC andd printer are in initialization process. When both the NIC and printer have completed the

 

 

initialization, theLCD displays E-NET READY.

 

 

 

 

 

Allows the Subnet Mask to be set for the TCP/IP protocol in four three-digit segments (SEG1

 

 

through SEG4). If the Subnet Mask is assigned by Bootp, Arp or DHCP, it is dynamic and read

 

 

only.

 

 

The defaults for the SEG1 through SEG4 are 000, 000, 000, and 000.

 

 

 

Subnet Mask

 

 

 

 

XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

Note: When changing the Subnet Mask, the printer resets the NIC when the printer is placed

 

 

online. When the printer resets the NIC, the LCD displays DO NOT POWER OFF. After the NIC

 

 

 

 

has completed its initialization, the LCD displays E-NET INIT to signal that the NIC and printer are

 

 

in the initialization process. When both the NIC and printer have completed initilization, the LCD

 

 

displays E-NET READY.
