8. Plug the power module into the wall outlet ➐. Since there is no
power switch, the print server is switched on after you plug it in.
9. Check the LEDs on the front of print server. The Status LED
should be green—either steady or blinking.
If the internal self-test failed, the Activity LED will be on and
the Status LED will be off. For troubleshooting information, see
the Troubleshooting chapter in the software guide shipped with
your print server.
10. Wait about 10 seconds. For 10Base-T and 100Base-TX networks,
check the 10 and 100 LEDs on the back to verify that the correct
one is lit. See p.1-8.
11. Switch on the power on your printer(s) to begin printing.
Verifying the Hardware Installation
To verify the installation of the HP JetDirect external printer
server, generate a configuration page. This page is generated from
Port 1 of the printer server.
To generate a configuration page, follow these steps:
1. Print a configuration page by pressing and releasing the Test
button on the print server.
2. If the configuration page displays the message I/O CARD
READY, you have successfully completed the hardware
installation. (If not, see the Troubleshooting chapter in the
HP JetDirect Print Server Administrator’s Guide shipped on the
HP JetDirect CD-ROM.)
Refer to this configuration page when you are configuring the
software. For sample configuration pages, see the
Troubleshooting chapter in the HP JetDirect Print Server
Administrator’s Guide shipped on the HP JetDirect CD-ROM.
Selecting a Configuration Page Language
The configuration page for the HP JetDirect external print server
is sent to the printer attached to Port 1. The printer language is
auto-detected the first time the print server is powered up and after
each cold reset.
