HP JetDirect Server Setup
Purpose
Sometimes it is necessary to connect a Document Centre to a network using the HP JetDirect external print server. This is an alternative means of connectivity, since the Document Centre already has an integrated network interface.
The Document Centre
Situations that dictate the need for JetDirect connection are generally large installations where printer manager applications such as HP JetAdmin or WebJetAdmin are used with existing printers. These applications may be limited in the types of network interfaces they can control or may be Unix or
Recommendation
The HP Jet Direct print server model 300X was evaluated and works well with the 400 series Document Centres. This server connects to the Document Centre via a parallel cable. We recommend you use a cable with a maximum distance of no more than 10 ft. For further detail, see step 2 in the installation procedure later in this document. The parallel printer cable is a DB 25 male to Micro Centronics 36 pin male. Contact one of the following manufacturers to obtain the correct cable:
