What Is The Ethernet Interface?
17
Basic Ethernet And E-mail
The ability to configure e-mail (address and SMTP server) is
disabled. This effectively disables all e-mail logging features.
Basic Ethernet And Network Test Page Printing
An alternate method for generating the network test page is
required, since the printer is not capable of initiating the process in
the Ethernet. On initialization, if Ethernet dip switch 2 is “on”
(or closed), the Ethernet test page will generate and be sent to the
printer.
NOTE: To print the Basic Ethernet test page that will fit within the
paper width of the IBM 4400 thermal printer, the user must
select the desirable font and pitch (i.e. Letter Gothic and 15
CPI), save the settings in a config, and select this config as
the Power-Up config before starting the procedure for
printing the Basic Ethernet Test Page.
NOTE: When running LMU1 emulation the test page will not print if
the ASCII Text Mode setting is set to Absorb. To print the
test page, under LMU1 emulation, change the ASCII Text
Mode parameter from Absorb to Auto Pass-thru.
NOTE: If DHCP is enabled before powering up the printer with DIP
switch 2 closed, the Basic Ethernet test page will show
unconfigured IP settings instead of the actual dynamic IP
settings. This is because the test page is printed upon the
printer power-on before the Ethernet has negotiated with
the DHCP server to obtain the dynamic IP address.
SMART
Smart Ethernet
A 10/100 BaseT Ethernet Interface card that provides Ethernet
connectivity, extensive print server functions, and remote
management capabilities with tighter printer integration.
The Ethernet Interface package contains a Ethernet Interface to
attach itself and the printer to the network.
