• BootP
You can enable or disable the BootP protocol using this option, but
consult your administration for the appropriate setting.
The options are Enable (factory default) and Disable.
NOTE: When changing the BootP option, the printer resets the NIC when the
printer is placed online. When the printer resets the NIC, the LCD
displays DO NOT POWER OFF. The printer will then reboot to re-
establish communication with the NIC.
• NetBIOS Protocol
• Enable (factory default). The NIC will respond to the NetBIOS
protocol.
• Disable . The NIC does not recognize the NetBIOS protocol.
• ASCII Data Port . This option allows you to set the port number for ASCII
print jobs. The data port number needs to match your host system setting.
The range is 1025 - 65535, and the factory default is 9100.
• Keep Alive Timer . This is the time that the Keep Alive Timer will run.
Keep in mind that with the Keep Alive Timer on, the TCP connection will
stay connected even after the print job has terminated.
The range is 0-10 minutes, and the factory default is 3 minutes.
• Ethernet Speed . This menu appears only if a 10/100Base-T Network
Interface Card (NIC) is installed.
The Ethernet Speed menu has five different speed modes to allow
compatibility with different systems and networks:
• Auto Select (factory default). Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to perform
an auto detection scheme and configure itself to be 10 Half Duplex,
10 Full Duplex, 100 Half Duplex, or 100 Full Duplex.
• 10 Half Duplex . Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to communicate at 10
Megabits per second using half duplex.
• 10 Full Duplex . Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to communicate at 10
Megabits per second using full duplex.
• 100 Half Duplex . Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to communicate at 100
Megabits per second using half duplex.
• 100 Full Duplex . Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to communicate at 100
Megabits per second using full duplex.
