RIP software uses the following ports for printer communication and job submission, so you must ensure that your RIP host system can connect to these ports: 80, 8085, 8086, 8090, 9100. Advanced network configuration You will probably not need to read this section, but the information is provided as it may be useful in some cases. The printer provides a single RJ-45 connector port for a network connection. In order to meet Class B limits, the use of shielded I/O cables is required. The embedded Jetdirect print server supports connection to IEEE 802.3 10Base-T Ethernet, IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet and 802.3ab 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet compliant networks. When connected and powered on, the printer auto-negotiates with your network to operate with a link speed of 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps, and to communicate using full- or half-duplex mode. However, you can manually configure the link using the printer's front panel, or through other configuration tools once network communication is established. The printer can support multiple network protocols simultaneously, including TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6. For security, it includes features to control IP traffic to and from the printer. Verify correct operation 1. Print an IO Configuration page to check for status messages. 2. In the upper section of the IO Configuration page, look for the status message I/O Card Ready. 3. If I/O Card Ready appears, the print server is operating properly. Proceed to the next section. If a message other than I/O Card Ready appears, try the following: a. Turn the printer off and then on again to re-initialize the print server. b. Check that the status indicator lights (LEDs) are providing proper status. NOTE: See Troubleshooting on page 32 for link configuration and troubleshooting information. See the HP Jetdirect Print Servers Administrator's Guide for your print server model to interpret and troubleshoot other messages. Preconfigure network settings if required If your network requires that you configure network settings before you add the printer to your network systems, you can do so now. However, in most cases, you can skip this section. Instead, you can proceed directly to the next section to install the printer on your network computer systems. The network installation software will allow you to configure basic network settings and add the printer to your system configuration. Tools for preconfiguration The following tools can be used to preconfigure your network settings. ● The front panel ● The Embedded Web Server ● You can use an advanced configuration method, such as BootP, DHCP, Telnet, or the arp and ping commands. For instructions, see the HP Jetdirect Print Servers Administrator's Guide for your print server model. After the printer is configured with network settings, the configuration values are saved and maintained even after it is turned off and on again. ENWW Advanced network configuration 31

The embedded Jetdirect print server supports connection to IEEE 802.3 10Base-T Ethernet, IEEE 802.3u

The printer can support multiple network protocols simultaneously, including TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6. For
security, it includes features to control IP traffic to and from the printer.
Verify correct operation
1.
Print an IO Configuration page to check for status messages.
2.
In the upper section of the IO Configuration page, look for the status message
I/O Card Ready
.
3.
If
I/O Card Ready
appears, the print server is operating properly. Proceed to the next section.
If a message other than
I/O Card Ready
appears, try the following:
a.
Turn the printer off and then on again to re-initialize the print server.
b.
Check that the status indicator lights (LEDs) are providing proper status.
NOTE:
See
Troubleshooting
on page
32
for link configuration and troubleshooting information.
See the
HP Jetdirect Print Servers Administrator’s Guide
for your print server model to interpret and troubleshoot
other messages.
Preconfigure network settings if required
If your network requires that you configure network settings before you add the printer to your network systems,
you can do so now.
However, in most cases, you can skip this section. Instead, you can proceed directly to the next section to install
the printer on your network computer systems. The network installation software will allow you to configure
basic network settings and add the printer to your system configuration.
Tools for preconfiguration
The following tools can be used to preconfigure your network settings.
The front panel
The Embedded Web Server
You can use an advanced configuration method, such as BootP, DHCP, Telnet, or the arp and ping
commands. For instructions, see the
HP Jetdirect Print Servers Administrator’s Guide
for your print server
model.
After the printer is configured with network settings, the configuration values are saved and maintained even
after it is turned off and on again.
