change the link speed
Link speed is the speed at which data is transmitted over a line on a wired
network.
The HP PSC internal networking component uses an automatic detection method
to settle on an Ethernet link speed with the connected switch, hub, or other
device. In some cases the connected device might be using a non-standard link
speed, or cabling issues might result in a negotiated setting that is not optimal.
For this reason, you can manually configure the speed supported by your
HP PSC.
Caution! Be careful when changing the link speed for the Ethernet
ports. If you choose a setting that is not valid for the connected
Ethernet device your connection could be broken and traffic could
be interrupted.
to change the link speed
1 Access the Network menu. (See access the network menu on page 75.)
2 Press 4 to select Change Link Speed from the Network menu.
3 Press OK.
The link speed setting options appear on the color graphics display.
Note: The default setting for link speed is AUTO.
4 Use the and buttons to select either AUTO, 10 Mbps half duplex, 10

5 Press OK.
