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 4XX-series features bi-directional port 9100 printing, but functions
slightly different from the JetDirect, and may not work with certain print managers such as
JetAdmin.
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 mainframe-based.
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:
Xerox
Belkin Components
CompUSA
NOTE: Before proceeding with the installation, ensure that the parallel port is enabled on
the Document Centre.
