By attaching a device directly to a network, it can be installed in a convenient location and shared by multiple users. In addition, a network connection allows data transfers to or from the device at network speeds. HP Jetdirect internal print servers are installed in HP printers that have a compatible input/output (I/O) slot. HP Jetdirect external print servers connect printers to the network by adapting the printer’s parallel or USB port to a network port. Depending on the model, HP Jetdirect external print servers can connect up to three printers to a network. Note Unless otherwise specified, the term print server in this manual refers to the HP Jetdirect print servers and not a separate computer running print server software. EN 7 Supported Print Servers Unless otherwise specified, the features described in this guide support the following HP Jetdirect print servers with firmware version x.21.01 or greater, where x depends on the print server type. G HP Jetdirect 610N internal print servers The installed firmware version can be identified using various methods, including the HP Jetdirect configuration page (see Chapter 8), Telnet (see Chapter 3), embedded web server (see Appendix B), and network management applications. For firmware updates, see “Software, Driver, and Firmware Upgrades”.
