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 four 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.

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.

Fast Standard

. The EOJ (End of Job) packet is acknowledged

immediately. Use this selection if the job is timed out due to a delay in the
acknowledgement of the EOJ packet because of the amount of data
being printed.

NOTE:

It is recommended to set this option to Enhanced if the emulation is
Postscript.
