Service menu

Use this menu to restore default settings, clean the product, and activate special modes that affect print output.

Menu item

Description

 

 

Cleaning mode

Use this option to clean the product if you see toner specks or other marks on the

 

printed output. The cleaning process removes dust and excess toner from the paper

 

path.

 

When you select this item, the product prompts you to load plain paper in Tray 1 and

 

then press OK to start the cleaning process. Wait until the process is complete.

 

Discard the page that prints.

 

 

USB speed

Sets the USB speed to High or Full. For the product to actually operate at high

 

speed, it must have high speed enabled and be connected to an EHCI host controller

 

that is also operating at high speed. This menu item also does not reflect the current

 

operating speed of the product.

 

The default setting is High.

 

 

Less paper curl

If printed pages are consistently curled, use this option to set the product to a mode

 

that reduces curl.

 

The default setting is Off.

 

 

Archive print

If you are printing pages that will be stored for a long time, use this option to set the

 

product to a mode that reduces toner smearing and dusting.

 

The default setting is Off.

 

 

Restore defaults

Resets all customized settings to the factory default values.

Description

 

 

CFG TCP/IP

Access the TCP/IP menu and set TCP/IP protocol parameters.

 

BOOTP=YES* Enable IPv4 configuration by a BOOTP Server.

 

DHCP=YES* Enable IPv4 configuration by a DHCP Server.

 

If DHCP=YES* and the print server has a DHCP lease, you can configure the following DHCP

 

settings:

 

RELEASE: Select whether to release (YES) or save (NO) the current lease.

 

RENEW: Select whether to renew (YES or NO) the lease.

 

AUTO IP=YES* Automatically assign a link-local IPv4 address in the form 169.254.x.x.

 

If you specify BOOTP=NO*, DHCP=NO* and AUTO IP=NO*, you can manually set the following

 

TCP/IPv4 parameters from the control panel:

 

Each byte of the IPv4 address (IP)

 

Subnet Mask (SM)

 

Syslog Server (LG)

 

Default Gateway (GW)

Idle Timeout period (default is 270 seconds, 0 disables the timeout)

CFG DNS 1: IPv4 address of a primary DNS server (one byte at a time).

CFG DNS 2: IPv4 address of a secondary DNS server (one byte at a time).

IPV6 = YES*: Enable IPv6 operation. Select NO to disable IPv6 operation.

POLICY=RTR_AV/RTR_UN/ALWAYS: Set one of the following IPv6 addressing policies:

RTR_AV: (default) Stateful auto-configuration method is determined by a router. The router specifies whether the print server obtains its address, configuration information, or both from a DHCPv6 server.

RTR_UN: Attempt to obtain stateful configuration from a DHCPv6 server (when a router is not available).

ALWAYS: Always attempt to obtain stateful configuration from a DHCPv6 server (whether or not a router is available).

MANUAL= KEEP/DISABLE: Set the behavior of a manually configured IPv6 address detected on the print server.

KEEP (default): Maintain the address in an active state.

DISABLE: Maintain the address but in an inactive state.

Print an HP Jetdirect configuration page to verify your settings. (The print server can overwrite selected parameters with values that ensure proper operation.)

WEB

Embedded Web server accepts communications using HTTPS (Secure HTTP) only, or both HTTP

 

and HTTPS.

 

HTTPS: Accept only HTTPS (print server appears as a secure site).

 

HTTP/HTTPS: Accept either HTTP or HTTPS.

 

 

SECURITY

Reset current security settings to factory defaults.

 

KEEP (default): Retain current security settings.

 

RESET: Reset security settings to factory defaults.

Print a configuration page for the selected item.

 

SECURITY: Print the current security settings.

 

 

CFG LINK

Manually configure the HP Jetdirect print server's network link.

 

Set the link speed and communication mode. These must match the network. The available

 

settings depend on the print server model.

 

CAUTION: Changing the link setting can cause the loss of network communication with the print

 

server.

 

AUTO (default): Use auto-negotiation to set the highest link speed and communication mode

 

allowed. If auto-negotiation fails, either 100TX HALF or 10TX HALF is set depending on the

 

detected link speed of the hub/switch port. (A 1000T half-duplex selection is not supported.)

 

10T HALF: 10 Mbps, half-duplex operation.

 

10T FULL: 10 Mbps, Full-duplex operation.

 

100TX HALF: 100 Mbps, half-duplex operation.

 

100TX FULL: 100 Mbps, full-duplex operation.

 

100TX AUTO: Limits auto-negotiation to a maximum link speed of 100 Mbps.

 

1000TX FULL: 1000 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
