Ethernet Speed
This menu option only appears if a 10/100Base-T network interface card
(NIC) is installed. The Ethernet Speed menu allows compatibility with different
systems and networks. The factory default is Auto Select.
•
Auto Select . (default) This setting 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.
Job Control
The job control mode has three options:
•
Standard (default). The NIC waits for the printer to finish receiving the
current job before sending another job. The status line shows “done”
when the job is completely received by the NIC. This is the default.
•
Enhanced . The NIC waits for the printer to finish receiving the current job
before sending another job. The status line shows “done” when the job is
fully printed.
•
Off . No job synchonization between the NIC and the printer.
Ethernet Hotport
Gives the printer the ability to handle multiple data streams simultaneously. It
allows the printer to service hosts attached to the Serial and Ethernet ports as
if they were the only interface connected.
•
Timeout . This is the value used by the printer to time out from the current
port and check the other ports for data to print. When the printer has not
received data from the host after a certain period of time, it needs to
timeout to service the other ports.
•
10 Sec (the default)
•
10 sec - 60 sec .
