Precautions Precautions Please pay attention to the following when using the network interface board. When configuration is necessary, follow the appropriate procedures below. Connecting a Dial-Up Router to a Network When using NetWare (file server) If the NetWare file server and printer are on opposite sides of a router, packets are sent back and forth continuously, possibly incurring communications charg- es. Because packet transmission is a feature of NetWare, you need to change the configuration of the router. If the network you are using does not allow you to 4 configure the router, configure the machine instead. ❖ Configuring the router Filter packets so they do not pass over the dial-up router. Note ❒ The MAC address of the filtering printer is printed on the printer configuration page. For more information about printing a configuration page, see Printer Reference. ❒ For more information about configuring the printer if the router cannot be configured, see the following instructions. Configuring the printer with NetWare A Following the setup method described earlier in this manual, configure the file server. B Set the frame type for NetWare environment. Reference For more information about selecting a frame type, see the General Settings Guide. Configuring the printer without NetWare A When not printing, the network interface board sends packets over the network. Set NetWare to "inactive". Reference For more information about selecting a protocol, see General Settings Guide. 125
