Token-Ring Network Connection
Token-Ring connections support both Type 1 (shielded twisted-pair—
IBM Token-Ring Network Adapter cable or the equivalent) or Type 3
(unshielded twisted-pair) cables.
▲ Caution: While Type 3 unshielded twisted-pair Token-Ring cables
can be used on Ethernet networks, unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet
cables may not be compatible with Token-Ring networks. Check the
Electronic Industries Association (EIA) TIA 568B specification for
more information.
▲ Caution: Before continuing with this procedure, make sure you know
the network’s ring speed. If the printer is set to the wrong network ring
speed, network operation will be disrupted.
1 Turn off the printer, and unplug the power cord.
2 Connect the network adapter cable to the appropriate Token-
Ring port on the CrownNet interface.
3 Plug in the printer.
4 Configure, if necessary, the interface.
For 16 Megabit Networks (default setting)
a Connect the printer to the network with the network adapter
cable.
b Turn on the printer.
For 4 Megabit Networks
a Turn on the printer.
