IBM InfoPrint 20, User Manual

Page: 128 / 206

If you have purchased network interface cards for your printer, install them in the
printer following the steps listed in this section. Two cards to connect to two
different systems can be installed.
Note: You cannot install two identical cards. For example, the printer cannot accept
two IBM Network Cards for Ethernet, but it can accept an IBM Ethernet card
and an IBM Token Ring card.
A system or network administrator should review the documentation shipped with
the network interface card to configure the printer and your computing environment
correctly. IBM Network Printers: Ethernet and Token Ring Quick Configuration
Guide is shipped with the Ethernet and token-ring network interface cards. IBM
Network Printers: Twinax/Coax Configuration Guide is shipped with the Twinax and
Coax network interface cards.
Only a system or network administrator should configure your network computing
environment for this printer.
Installing a Network Interface Card
Attention
Follow the instructions for handling static-sensitive devices described on page
113.
Use the following procedure to install a Network Interface card:
1. Unpack the network interface card, and set aside the software and
documentation that arrived with the card.
2. If you are installing a token-ring card, you must complete the following
procedure to set the line speed for the card. If you are not installing a
token-ring card, skip this step and go to Step 3.
a. Lay the token-ring card in front of you with the faceplate toward you.
b. On the right, rear side are six pins and two small jumpers.
v
If you are installing the card for a 4 Mbps network, place a jumper over
the pins labeled 4.
v
If you are installing the card for a 16 Mbps network, place a jumper over
the pins labeled 16.
3. When the printer is not printing, switch the printer power off.
Attention: Do not switch the power off if the printer is printing a page. This
action jams the printer.
4. Unplug the printer from the wall outlet.
5. Remove the power cord from the back of the printer.
6. Move to the back of the printer. Two slots for interface cards are located at the
right side of the back of the printer. If you are installing only one card, use the
top slot.
