For the integrated Ethernet, the default is P_xxxxxx

For the external (E-Net) Adapter, the default is M_xxxxxx

where xxxxxx represents the last six digits of the network adapter's
Ethernet address (e.g., P_01001C and M_091C1A, respectively).
For the Wireless Adapter, the default name is “M302_xxxxx” where
“xxxxx” equals the five digit adapter serial number.

Description

Optional field to help identify the printer’s features and capabilities.

Printer Serial Number

A serial number that the user can enter through the PrintNet
Webpage to keep track of the PrintNet/printer.

NOTE: If the user has not entered a serial number through one of

the Ethernet Interface cards, the printer may use its internal
serial number from EEPROM. If EEPROM is blank, i.e. no
serial number on the board, it will use the MAC address of
the embedded Ethernet, embedded wireless Ethernet, or
external Ethernet, respectively, as the printer’s serial
number.
