Interfaces
The NIC interfaces with the host printer through an Ethernet
10/100Base-T interface connector.
Two NIC interfaces are available, depending on the type of
controller board the printer contains. Some printers use external
NICs with dip switches and LEDs that plug into the IEEE 1284
(parallel) interface. Other printers use NICs that plug into the
Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) controller boards that have
no dip switches or LEDs.
NOTE: If your printer uses both types of NICs, please refer to the
External Network Interface Card User’s Manual for more
information.
