Step 17. Optional Network Configuration
The following is for HP LaserJet 5Si MX/5Si
NX printer only.
Certain network parameters for Novell NetWare, UNIX (HP-UX,
Solaris, or SunOS), and EtherTalk networks might need to be set
depending upon your network configuration. Refer to the HP JetDirect
Print Server Software Installation Guide for completing configuration.
The following pages describe the parameters that are needed for the
individual networks and procedures to set those parameters from the
printer control panel.
By factory default, all supported network protocols are enabled in the
printer.
Disabling unused protocols will:
•• Decrease printer-generated network traffic.
•• Prevent unauthorized users from printing to the printer.
•• Provide only pertinent information on the configuration page.
•• Allow the display of warning messages on the printer control panel
display to show protocol-specific error conditions.
Step 19 lists the procedures for disabling unused network protocols.
Software that allows configuration on the supported networks,
NetWare 3.x or 4.x, Windows NT, IBM LAN Server, and AppleTalk,
is included with the printer. If you don’t have the software that you
need to configure your printer, see Step 21 for sources.
Network software configuration information for your HP LaserJet 5Si
MX/5Si NX printer is located in the HP JetDirect Print Server
Software Installation Guide included with your printer.
