Step 1. Identify Your HP Jetdirect 615N/610N/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 (600N) for Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T networks (10 Mbps). This card provides a single RJ-45 - HP 615N | HP Jetdirect 615n EIO Internal Print Server - (English) Hardware Insta - Page 13
operation at 10 or 100 Mbps, fullor half-duplex mode, but can be manually set through the printers control panel. This card provides a single RJ-45 connector for networks that use unshielded twisted-pair cables. To manually set link operation, see Appendix A.
