2. If Necessary, Set Switches or Jumpers on Your Card
If You Have a Token Ring Card
Token Ring networks operate at 4 Mbps or 16 Mbps. You must set
the Data Rate switch on the card to either 4 or 16, depending on your network. If you don’t know, ask your network administrator. The factory default is 16 Mbps.
If You Have a 10/100Base-TX Card
The 10/100TX card is preconfigured for Autonegotiation (jumper P1), which means the card will automatically attempt to connect to your network using the proper speed (10 or 100 Mbps) and duplex mode (Full or Half). In most cases, you do not need to change the jumper settings. Refer to Appendix A for more information.
3.Before Installing the Card, Verify That Your Printer Works.
Print a Printer
Configuration Page.
For instructions, see chapter 2 or refer to your printer manuals.
4
4.Turn Off Your Printer and Insert the Card. Then connect the network cables.
Some printers have multiple EIO (Enhanced I/O) slots. You can install the HP JetDirect card into any EIO slot.
5. Verify That the Card Is Operating Properly.
Turn on the printer and print another configuration page.
Verify that a “JetDirect Configuration Page” also prints.
Check the JetDirect Configuration Page and verify that an “I/O CARD READY” message appears.

Note |
If other messages appear, see the troubleshooting |
|
sections in the HP JetDirect administrator’s guide |
|
provided on the HP JetDirect CD-ROM. |
|
For HP J3113A 10/100Base-TX cards, see appendix |
|
A in this manual for special troubleshooting |
|
information. |
|

6. Configure the Card for Network Operation.
You can use the installation and configuration software on the HP JetDirect CD-ROM, or download it from the World Wide Web.
Refer to the HP JetDirect administrator’s guide (supplied electronically on the CD-ROM).
For many HP printers, you can use the printer’s control panel to configure basic network parameters.
Refer to chapter 3 in this guide.
If the JetDirect card has been configured with an IP address, you can use a supported Web Browser for advanced configuration.
Refer to chapter 4 in this guide.

Introduction
The HP JetDirect 600N family of internal print servers are network interface cards for HP Enhanced I/O (EIO) printers and mopiers. With an HP JetDirect print server, you can connect and share your printer anywhere on your network and print at network speeds.
A typical network using an HP JetDirect 600N print server is illustrated below. The card must first be installed into the printer and connected to the network. Then, you must configure the card for network operation.
HP JetDirect 600N
●You can use HP JetDirect printer installation or management software. Refer to the HP JetDirect software installation instructions included with this product.
●Alternatively, for printers equipped with a control panel, you can use the printer’s control panel to configure basic network parameters. See chapter 3.

Installing the Print Server
What You Need for Installation
●The proper HP JetDirect print server, documentation, and software for your network.
●The proper network cables and connectors for connecting the card and printer to your network.
●A static-safe environment for handling the card.
CAUTION HP JetDirect cards contain electronic components that can be damaged by static electricity through electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent ESD damage, maintain frequent contact with any bare sheet metal surface on the printer. A grounding wrist strap (or similar device) is useful for this purpose. Handle the card carefully at all times. Avoid touching electronic components or circuit paths.
Installing the Print Server 2-1
Step 1. Identify Your HP JetDirect
600N Internal Print Server
Remove the HP JetDirect card from its packaging and verify that you have the correct card for your network.
HP J3110A for Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T networks (10 Mbps).
This card provides a single RJ-45 connector for networks that use unshielded twisted-pair cables.
HP J3111A for Ethernet, IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T/10Base-2 networks (10 Mbps), and LocalTalk networks.
This card provides an RJ-45 connector for networks that use unshielded twisted-pair cables, a BNC connector for ThinLAN coaxial cables, and a Mini-DIN 8 connector for a LocalTalk connector box.
You can use the LocalTalk port and only one Ethernet port: RJ-45 or BNC.
2-2 Installing the Print Server
HP J3112A for Token Ring (IEEE 802.5) networks. A Data Rate switch selects operation for 4-Mbps or 16-Mbps Token Ring networks.
This card provides an RJ-45 connector for networks that use unshielded twisted-pair cables, and a DB 9 connector for Type 1, 2 or 6 shielded twisted-pair cables.
Data Rate Switch
You can use only one Token Ring port: RJ-45 or DB 9.
HP J3113A for Ethernet, IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T or IEEE 802.3u Type 100Base-TX networks. Jumpers on the card allow autonegotiated or manual settings for 10 or 100 Mbps operation at full or half duplex.
This card provides a single RJ-45 connector for networks that use unshielded twisted-pair cables.
Jumpers
In most cases, you do not need to change the jumpers. See appendix A.
