ETWORK CONFIGURATION
I
NTRODUCTION
Your printer incorporates a fast 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T network
interface. This User’s Guide explains the functionality of the built
in network interface. Access for interconnection and producing
self-diagnostic test and configuration printouts is provided via an
interface panel at the rear of the printer.
This network interface supports IEEE802.2, IEEE802.3, EthernetII and SNAP, and can detect those frame types automatically.
Also, the interface supports major protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/
SPX (NetWare), EtherTalk and NetBEUI.
This section details the network interface specification and
several software utilities.
You should set the emulation in the Printer Menu settings to Auto
or PS before printing the self-diagnostic test and settings.

under the heading “General Information” the MAC Address is
given. For example:
MAC Address 00808784E3F1

(NetWare).
This utility can only be used on a PC that can be connected to the
network with TCP/IP or IPX/SPX.
This utility must be used on a PC that is located on the same
segment as the printer.
To create a NetWare queue, NetWare Client 32 or IntranetWare
Client should be installed in your system.
