Introduction 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 and supports configuration of IP Security (IPsec) protocols. Control network protocols The printer can simultaneously support multiple network communication protocols. This allows network computers that may be using different protocols to communicate with the same printer. Each protocol may require some configuration before the printer can communicate on the network. For some protocols, required parameters are automatically sensed and user-specified settings are not needed. However, for other protocols, there may be many parameters to configure. Enable or disable network protocols If a network protocol is enabled, the printer may actively transmit on the network even when there are no computers on the network that use the protocol. This may increase network traffic. To eliminate unnecessary traffic, you can disable unused protocols. Disabling unused protocols lets you: ● Reduce network traffic by eliminating broadcast messages from unused protocols ● Provide better control over who prints to the printer by eliminating users from other networks who might route print jobs to this printer ● Display protocol-specific error conditions for enabled protocols only To disable unused protocols through the device's control panel menu, see Front-panel menu items on page 67. For other tools, such as system command access to the embedded Telnet server, see the HP Jetdirect Print Server Administrator's Guide for your print server model.

Introduction
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 and supports
configuration
of IP
Security (IPsec) protocols.
Control network protocols
The printer can simultaneously support multiple network communication protocols. This allows network
computers that may be using
different
protocols to communicate with the same printer.
Each protocol may require some
configuration
before the printer can communicate on the network. For some
protocols, required parameters are automatically sensed and
user-specified
settings are not needed.
However, for other protocols, there may be many parameters to
configure.
Enable or disable network protocols
If a network protocol is enabled, the printer may actively transmit on the network even when there are no
computers on the network that use the protocol. This may increase network
traffic.
To eliminate unnecessary
traffic,
you can disable unused protocols. Disabling unused protocols lets you:
●
Reduce network
traffic
by eliminating broadcast messages from unused protocols
●
Provide better control over who prints to the printer by eliminating users from other networks who
might route print jobs to this printer
●
Display
protocol-specific
error conditions for enabled protocols only
To disable unused protocols through the device’s control panel menu, see
Front-panel menu items
on page

. For other tools, such as system command access to the embedded Telnet server, see the
HP
Jetdirect Print Server Administrator’s Guide
for your print server model.
