see your printer documentation.

▲ Caution:
Leave the printer disconnected from the network if
you are changing the ring speed.
e Use the Administration/Communications/
xxxxxxxx
NIC/
CrownNet/Common/Soft Reset menu to reset the CrownNet
interface (where

5 The default source routing type (Auto—Send the file as the
most appropriate frame type) is fine for most Token-Ring net-
works.
However, if your network uses a different type of source routing,
identify that now in the Administration/Communications/
xxxxxxxx
NIC/CrownNet/Common/Source Routing menu (where
xxxxxxxx
is either Resident or Optional). Other choices are
n All—Send as an all-routes-explorer frame, also known as an
all-routes-broadcast frame.
n Off—Send without source routing information.
n Single—Send as a spanning-tree-explorer frame, also
known as a single-route-broadcast frame.
