Ethernet (wired network only) 4
Ethernet link mode. Auto allows the print server to operate in 1000BASE-T full duplex (For DCP-8250DN and
MFC-8950DW(T)), 100BASE-TX full or half duplex, or in 10BASE-T full or half duplex mode by auto
negotiation.
Note
• If you set this value incorrectly, you may not be able to communicate with your print server.
• For details about 1000BASE-T full duplex operation, see Gigabit Ethernet (wired network only) (For
DCP-8250DN and MFC-8950DW(T)) uu page 93.
