A Token Ring network or an Ethernet local area network (LAN)
running Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP),
AppleTalk, or Novell NetWare software is the network
communication system used to transport documents from the client
workstation to the printer.
The Ethernet connection to the printer controller processor must be
compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE) 802.3 standard.
The Ethernet interface on the printer controller processor is a 10Mb/
sec twisted pair standard (10BaseT and 100BaseT). Attachment Unit
Interface (AUI) Coax Ethernet is enabled with an adapter cable.
Work with your system administrator to assess what type of network
you have and what modifications need to be made to supply an
Ethernet connector to the printer controller processor.
The Token Ring connection must be compatible with the IEEE 802.3
standard. The printer controller processor has a 4MB or 16 MB
Token Ring Auto interface (16 MB is preferred).
TCP/IP, Novell 3.x, and Apple Talk network protocols are supported
over FDDI. The FDDI supports a Single Connection configuration
only.
