ENWW I/O submenu Items on the I/O (input/output) menu affect the communication between the printer and the computer. The submenu appears only when an EIO (enhanced input/output) device is installed in an EIO slot on the printer (such as an HP Jetdirect print server). The contents of the submenu depend on which type of EIO card is installed. If the printer contains an HP Jetdirect print server EIO card, you can configure basic networking parameters using the submenu. These and other parameters can also be configured through HP Web Jetadmin (see "Using HP Web Jetadmin software" on page 64) or other network configuration tools, such as Telnet or the embedded Web server (see "Using the embedded Web server" on page 62). The following table lists the settings and possible values. In the Values column, the default value for each setting is the one with an asterisk (*) next to it. Item Values Explanation I/O TIMEOUT 5 to 300 (*15) Select the I/O timeout period in seconds. This setting allows you to adjust timeout for best performance.

ENABLE OFF *ON Select whether the TCP/IP protocol stack is enabled or disabled. HOST NAME *NPIXXXXXX An alphanumeric string (up to 32 characters long) that is used to identify the device. This name is listed on the Jetdirect configuration page. The default host name is NPIXXXXXX, where XXXXXX is composed of the last six digits of the LAN hardware (MAC) address. CONFIG METHOD *BOOTP DHCP MANUAL Select whether the TCP/IP configuration parameters are set automatically from a network server by using BootP (Bootstrap Protocol), DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), or manually from the I/O submenu. If you select DHCP and a DHCP lease exists, use the DHCP settings to set DHCP lease options. If you select MANUAL, use the MANUAL settings to configure TCP/IP parameters. Configure Device menu 157
