If you are using only the LocalTalk port, 18 MIO NOT READY will appear
every time you turn on the printer. This message will automatically
disappear after 5 minutes.

Optional Network Configuration.

The following is for HP LaserJet 5Si MX printers only.

Certain network parameters for Novell NetWare, UNIX (HP-UX, Solaris, or
SunOS), and EtherTalk networks might need to be set depending upon the
network configuration. The following describes the parameters and
procedures to set those parameters.

By factory default, all supported network protocols are enabled in the HP
LaserJet 5Si MX printer.

Disabling unused protocols will:

Rid the network of unwanted broadcast messages from the printer.

Provide better control over who prints to the printer.

Provide only pertinent information on the self test page.

Allow the display of warning messages on the printer control panel display
to show protocol-specific error conditions. The procedures for disabling the
network protocols is found later in this appendix.

Software which allows configuration on the supported networks is included
with the printer, except for UNIX (AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, or SunOS) which
must be purchased separately.

Network software configuration information for the printer is located in the
HP JetDirect Network Interface Configuration Guide included with the HP
LaserJet 5Si MX printer.
