HP Web Jetadmin - Supported Printer Features in HP Web Jetadmin

21
DNS Server
If your network uses Domain Name System (DNS) services, use this option to specify the IP address of a primary DNS server for specified devices. If
a secondary DNS server is available on your network and can be configured on the device, you may also specify the IP address of the secondary DNS
server, which is used when the primary DNS server is not available. Use Domain Name to specify a Domain Name for this device. A domain is a set of
one or more IP addresses, and the Domain Name identifies the domain in which the device resides (for example, support.hp.com). A Domain Name
typically consists of a series of labels separated by the dot (.) character, ending with a predefined suffix to identify its top-level domain. For example,
the top-level domain .com is used for commercial businesses, .edu for educational institutions, and .org for nonprofit organizations.
ePrint Settings
Use this option to enable or disable access to HP Web Services and specify which services are enabled for the device. HP Web Services includes
HP ePrint and HP Apps. You can enable HP Web Services on all devices, but the supported services vary depending on the device model.
Error Handling
This option specifies how the HP Jetdirect EX print server handles error conditions. The print log provides information that you can use to troubleshoot
printer problems and recover from errors.
HTTP Idle Timeout
Use this option to configure the amount of time (in seconds) that an HTTP connection to the device remains open when there is no traffic, such as
when a print job stops sending data to the device.
IPP Printer Install Wizard
This option lets you specify the URL for the IPP Printer Install Wizard link for this device. When you access this link, an Install Wizard runs that lets you
create a print path between your computer and this device.
IPv4 Information
IPv6 Information
You can enable or disable an IPv6-capable device to use the IPv6 protocol. IPv6 must be enabled to access other IPv6-capable devices through an
IPv6 network.
IPX - Ethernet Frame
Type
This option lets you specify the Ethernet frame types that the HP Jetdirect print server uses on the network. If you select Auto, the HP Jetdirect print
server tries all of the frame types until it finds the one that works. If you know that you are only going to use one frame type, selecting that frame type
reduces network traffic.
IPX - Frame Type Token
Ring
This option lets you specify which encapsulation type for IPX to use for a token ring LAN or it can be set to let the device automatically decide which is
best to use. IPX protocol is supported by the Novell NetWare network operating system.
IPX - Queue Server Job
Polling Interval
This option lets you specify the number of seconds between polling the queue server for jobs. IPX protocol is supported by the Novell NetWare
network operating system.
IPX - RCFG Support
Enabled
This option lets you enable or disable Remote configuration protocol (RCFG, sometimes called RCONFIG). RCFG was developed by HP for remote
configuration and management of devices on an IPX/SPX network-typically a Novell NetWare network. By factory default, RCFG is enabled. HP Web
Jetadmin may use RCFG to configure Novell NetWare queue-server linkages on older HP Jetdirect print servers. However, RCFG does not support
encrypted communications or authentication, and is not secure. If RCFG is not required for device configuration and management, it should be
disabled. Disabling RCFG does not affect the use of IPX/SPX Direct-Mode (peer-to-peer) printing.
IPX - SAP Broadcast
Interval
This option lets you specify how often the HP Jetdirect print server sends out a Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) broadcast. By default, the HP
Jetdirect print server sends out a SAP broadcast every 60 seconds to advertise itself on the network and make Novell print servers aware of its
presence. SAP broadcasts are necessary for the print server services to be located in some Novell NetWare environments. If you have many HP
Jetdirect print servers on your network, SAP broadcasts can cause network traffic. To reduce this impact, increase the IPX SAP broadcast interval.
You might want to disable HP Jetdirect SAP broadcasts on Novell networks that use Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS) or on other networks
that do not require them.
IPX - Source Routing
This option lets you set how source routing is handled by the device or allow it to automatically choose. IPX protocol is supported by Novell NetWare
network operating system.
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.
Jetdirect External Print
Server
This feature allows you to restart the print server remotely. The external print server may not be close or be conveniently positioned for access.
