BootP
You can enable or disable the BootP protocol using this option, but
consult your administration for the appropriate setting.
The options are Enable (factory default) and Disable.
NOTE:
When changing the BootP option, the printer resets the ethernet
when the printer is placed online. When the printer resets the
ethernet, the LCD displays DO NOT POWER OFF. The printer will
then reboot to re-establish communication with the ethernet.
•
NetBIOS Protocol
•
Enable
(factory default). The ethernet will respond to the NetBIOS
protocol.
•
Disable
. The ethernet does not recognize the NetBIOS protocol.
•
ASCII Data Port
.
This option allows you to set the port number for ASCII
print jobs. The data port number needs to match your host system setting.
The range is 1023 - 65535, and the factory default is 9100.
•
Keep Alive Timer
.
This is the time that the Keep Alive Timer will run.
Keep in mind that with the Keep Alive Timer on, the tcp connection will
stay connected even after the print job has terminated.
The range is 2-10 minutes, and the factory default is 3 minutes.
•
Ethernet Speed
.
This menu appears only if a 10/100Base-T ethernet is
installed.
The Ethernet Speed menu has five different speed modes to allow
compatibility with different systems and networks:
•
Auto Select
(factory default). Tells the 10/100Base-T ethernet to
perform an auto detection scheme and configure itself to be 10 Half
Duplex, 10 Full Duplex, 100 Half Duplex, or 100 Full Duplex.
•
10 Half Duplex
. Tells the 10/100Base-T ethernet to communicate at
10 Megabits per second using half duplex.
•
10 Full Duplex
. Tells the 10/100Base-T ethernet to communicate at
10 Megabits per second using full duplex.
•
100 Half Duplex
. Tells the 10/100Base-T ethernet to communicate at
100 Megabits per second using half duplex.
•
100 Full Duplex
. Tells the 10/100Base-T ethernet to communicate at
100 Megabits per second using full duplex.
•
Job Control
•
Standard
(factory default). The ethernet waits for the entire job to be
received before it indicates the job is done.
•
Enhanced
. The ethernet waits for the entire job to be printed before it
indicates the job is done.
•
Off
. There is no synchronization between the ethernet and the printer.
NOTE:
For detailed information about using the Ethernet, refer to the
Ethernet Interface Card User’s Manual.
