Network Management; Network Configuration - HP 170X - JetDirect Print Server Hardware Installation Manual

Network Management

The HP JetDirect external print servers support the Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which enables remote
printer management and troubleshooting. A standard SNMP agent
resides on these print servers. Any standard SNMP-based
application can be used to access and manage these print servers.
Peripherals connected to an HP JetDirect external print server
appear as intelligent nodes on the network and are accessible
through various diagnostic utilities using the SNMP/IPX and
SNMP/IP protocols. These print servers also collect network
statistics and error messages to aid in network management and
troubleshooting.

Network Configuration

The HP JetDirect 300X, 170X, and 500X print servers provide an
embedded web server that can be accessed through a supported web
browser. For more information, see the Quick Start Guide (hardcopy
manual) shipped with your print server or the HP JetDirect
Administrator's Guide shipped on the HP JetDirect CD-ROM with
your print server.
