Unit 4: Printer Configuration
Is a transitional screen that allows entry into the Net BIOS Protocol menu.
Allows determination of if the NIC will recognize the NetBIOS protocol.
• Enable - factory default. Will recognize.
• Disable - will not recognize.
This options allows for the port number to be set for ASCII print jobs. The data port number must
match the host computer setting.
The allowable range is 0 to 65535, and the factory default is 9100.
Determines the amount of time that the tcp connection will remain connected after the print job
has terminated.
The allowable range is 2 to 10 minutes, and the factory default is 3 minutes.
This menu appears only if a 10/100Base-t Network Interface Card (NIC) is installed. There are
five different speed modes to allow compatibility with different systmes and networks.
• Auto Select - factory default. Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to perform an automatic detection
scheme and configure itself to be one of the other allowable options.
• 10 Half Duplex - communicates at 10 megabytes per second using half duplex.
• 10 Full Duplex - communicates at 10 megabytes per second using full duplex.
• 100 Half Duplex - communicates at 100 megabytes per second using half duplex.
• 100 Full Duplex - communicates at 100 megabytes per second using full duplex.
Determines how the printer and/or NIC card respond when a job has been completed. The
definition of a complete job is also determined by this setting.
• Standard - factory default. The NIC card responds to the host that the job is complete when
the entire print job has been accepted by the printer.
• Enhanced - the NIC card responds to the host that the job is complete when the entire job
has not only been accepted by the printer, but also completely printed.
• Off - without synchronization between the NIC and the printer. The NIC card is simply a
pass-trough and the printer tells the host when the job is complete.
Determines whether the printer processes incoming data when it is in an offline state.
• Disable - factory default. The printer does not process data while offline.
• Enable - continues to process (but not print) the current network/parallel job while the printer
is offline until in a buffer-near-full state.
Is the menu selection screen for the Ethernet Address option of the INTERFACES mode. Its
menu options are explained in the following five menu screen descriptions.
