Operator Panel Commands

 

Located on the printer is the Operator Panel. It has menus for 
configuring the NIC and for other printer settings. The 
commands in the Operator Panel are also available in the 
NPM and the SuperScript 1800 Web Pages. 

For detailed information about network commands located 
in the Operator Panel, see Appendix A, “Operator Panel 
Commands,” on page 43.

 

NIC Flash Memory

 

The printer’s NIC contains memory devices that hold 
firmware for processing network communications. The 
firmware also contains the printer’s web pages.

If NEC Technologies releases a upgraded version of the 
firmware, a computer running Windows 95 is used to 
upgrade the NIC firmware.

For information about upgrading the firmware, see 
Appendix E, “Upgrading the NIC Firmware,” on page 73.
