IPX - Source Routing
IPX protocol is supported by Novell’s NetWare network OS. This option lets you set how source routing is handled
by the device or allow it to automatically choose.
IPX Name
Use this option to change the name of a printer that is running in an IPX/SPX environment. The printer name is
changed on the HP Jetdirect card.
WARNING! If you are in an IPX/SPX environment, changing the printer name could disable the print paths for
types such as NetWare Bindery. If you are not using IPX/SPX, this option becomes another description eld. You
can assign a user-friendly printer name that helps you easily nd the printer in device lists.
To change the IPX/SPX name, type the name in the text box.
Jetdirect External Print Server
The HP Jetdirect External Print Server setting allows you to restart the print server remotely. The external print
server may not be close or be conveniently positioned for access.
To restart the external print server, select Restart.
Job Timeout
This value represents (in seconds) the maximum time of inactivity which must elapse before the print server card
switches from the current network protocol to another when a normal end of job is not detected. For external
HP Jetdirect print servers, allowable values are zero, and also within the range 30 to 3600 seconds. For internal
HP Jetdirect print servers, allowable values are zero, and also within the range 30 to 127 seconds.
NOTE: If the timeout value is set at zero, the print server will never time out (it will always stay in the current
network protocol being used).
To specify a new job timeout, enter the timeout in seconds in the text eld.
Locally Administered Address
Locally administered addresses are only supported in Token Ring HP Jetdirect print servers. The network device
manufacturer originally sets the media access control (MAC) address in the device read-only memory. You can
change the MAC address for most Token Ring network devices. This option lets you specify the MAC address on
the Token Ring HP Jetdirect print server. Some Token Ring environments use the Locally Administered Address
feature. While it is not a requirement that you change the MAC address, the Locally Administered Address feature
might be implemented in some Token Ring environments. Some administrators nd it easier to manage devices
if the MAC address for all of the devices of the same type start with specic characters. For example, starting all
HP devices with 003.
