Installing the hardware
for the HP Jetdirect 200m and 250m print servers
Hardware installation for the Jetdirect 200m or 250m print server is very
straightforward:
1. Set up the printer hardware. This step may vary among different printers,
so check your printer documentation (setup poster or quick start guide) for
details.
Do not connect the printer to your computer using a USB or parallel cable -- you
will make your connection via the network in the next step.
If you encounter your printer's software CD as you set up your printer, keep it
handy for use in the software installation, below.
2. Connect the print server, as follows:
Switch on the printer's power.
Plug in the print server. Push it into the printer's LIO slot until it
seats firmly and the latches click into place.
Plug in the network cable. The print server works with either 10Base-
T (Ethernet) or 100Base-TX (Fast Ethernet) network cabling, and
connects via twisted-pair cabling with a standard (8-pin, RJ-45)
connector. Plug one end of the cable into your network device (a hub,
switch, or router — if your network cabling is hidden in the walls, your
connection may be a wall outlet). Plug the other end into the print
server.
