Value
Specifies the MAC (medium access control) number of the printer.
Note: Normally, the MAC ADDRESS should be set to the unique
MAC ADDRESS on the network interface card. You can, however,
also use the MAC ADDRESS field to define locally administered
addresses (LAA). Resetting the printer to factory defaults sets the
LAA back to the MAC address. Each LAA must be unique, so make
sure to consult your network or LAN administrator before changing
this value.
See "Setting the Locally Administered MAC Address (LAA)" on
page 142 for more information.
Important!
For information about configuring the Ethernet attachment, please see IBM
Network Printers: Ethernet and Token Ring Quick Configuration Guide, which
comes with the Ethernet Network Interface Card. "Chapter 9. Configuring
Printer Network Addresses" on page 141 describes how to define the IP
address, default gateway address, and subnet mask from the operator panel.

read "Using the Operator Panel Keys" on page 16 and "Navigating Menus" on
page 17 before continuing.
Value
Specifies how the printer treats jobs it receives over the Ethernet
attachment:
v AUTO—the printer examines the data stream and handles it
accordingly.
v PCL—the printer treats all data streams as PCL5e.
v PS—the printer treats all data streams as PostScript.
v IPDS—the printer treats all data streams as IPDS. This option
appears only if the IPDS SIMM is installed.
Specifies the number of seconds the printer waits for data before it
determines there is no more data to receive for the job. The printer
then checks other attachments for jobs, if other attachments are
installed. Valid values are 5 to 300. The default is 15 seconds.
