Requirements
We recommend that you review the E300 requirements before you begin using the E300.
The operating system on the E300 is Linux.
Ethernet connection requirements
The E300 network port supports straight-through cable and the standard Ethernet network speeds and cable
categories.
The supported network speeds and cable categories are listed in the following table. This information is provided
only as a reference. Contact your authorized service/support center for resolution of any connection issues.

The network port supports the following Ethernet cable specifications:
•
Unhielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable
•
Straight-through cable (patch cable)
Network requirements
When the E300 is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked printer. Connecting to a live network allows the
E300 to query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues.
Supported network protocols
The E300 supports printing over the following protocols. These protocols can run concurrently over the same
connection. The E300 automatically switches to the correct protocol, and handles connections simultaneously.
Note:
Client computers that do not have any of the supported protocols can send print jobs through a print server
that has a supported protocol.
The E300 supports TCP/IP and UDP/IP (IPv4 or IPv6), including: Bonjour, DHCP, FTP, HTTP, IMAP, IPP, LDAP,
LPD, LPR, NetBios over TCP/IP (NBT), POP3, Port 9100, SMB, SMTP, SNMP, SNTP, SSL/TLS, WSD.
