This example looks similar to the first example. However, in this example, the network

devices are connected to a

hub

, rather than a

router

. The hub is directly connected to

the Internet.

Caution!

HP does not recommend this configuration. If possible, use a gateway to manage your

network's Internet access in order to limit exposure to viruses and guard against unwanted

entry.

using the printer on an ethernet network

Computers on the network send print jobs directly to the printer, which prints them in

the order received.

printer's ethernet capacity

The printer can accept print jobs sent simultaneously from four users.

For example, if five users each send a print job to the printer at the same time, the

printer accepts four of the print jobs and rejects the fifth. The user who sent the fifth

print job should wait a few minutes and then resend the print job.
