1-2 Ethernet Network Interface Card Configuration Guide
About this Chapter
This chapter describes the functionality and physical characteristics of the Ethernet Network Interface Card
(NIC).
Product Description
The Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) is an internal multiprotocol print server that provides shared
network access to the printer for a variety of network protocols and operating systems. The NIC supports
the following protocols: TCP/IP, AppleTalk (EtherTalk), Local Area Transport (LAT), and IPX (NetWare).
The NIC can queue multiple pending jobs and service those jobs in the order that they are received from the
hosts.
Physical Characteristics
The front panel of the Ethernet NIC has a TEST/RESET button and four LEDs. The NIC supports
10BasetT and 100BaseT using an RJ45 connector for shielded and twisted pair standard Ethernet cabling.
Number Description
1TEST/RESET button - when pressed briefly while powering up the unit, returns
the NIC to its original factory default configuration.
2NIC LED - blinks yellow quickly at power on and slowly during normal operation
to show unit is functioning.
3BNC - Lights solid green to when a valid BNC network is attached to the NIC.
4RJ45 port - for 10Base-T or 100Base-T network connections.
5NET LED - blinks yellow to reflect network activity.
6BASE-T LED - lights solid green to indicate a valid 10Base-T or 100Base-T
connection.
