Understanding the print server's features and benefits If you purchased an HP JetDirect 175X with your HP LaserJet 1200 printer, you can perform the following tasks: q Enhance workgroup productivity by placing your printer at a convenient location on the network while improving network printer performance. q Connect your printer directly to the network. q Share scan and print functions with others on the network. Note You can only attach one printer to the print server. Do not use a USB hub to attach more than one printer. Using network protocols Note The HP JetDirect 175X supports the following protocols: q TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) q IPX/SPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange) q AppleTalk IPX/SPX is not supported on Novell networks. You must configure the HP JetDirect print server for a direct peer-to-peer connection from the computer to the device rather than through a Novell server. This is sometimes called IPX direct mode. If you are setting up client-server printing on a Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, or 2000 network, you can use the installation software to configure your Windows 95, 98, NT, or 2000 print server and then share the printer with client computers. If you are setting up peer-to-peer printing on a Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, or 2000 network, you can use the installation software to configure each client to print directly to the printer. 44 Chapter 3 Getting to know the print server EN
