IMPORTANT: Be sure to print an HP Jetdirect configuration page before performing a reset to obtain the correct TCP/IP address and other user-specified printer settings. CAUTION: Resetting the printer clears all data from the printer memory and resets all printer settings, including network configurations, to their factory default values. After a reset, users will be affected due to changes in user-specified printer settings. Network systems will lose their connection to the printer.
2. Open the following menus: a. Administration b. General Settings c. Restore Factory Settings A verification message advises that completing the reset function might result in loss of data. 3. Select Reset to complete the process. The printer restarts automatically after the reset operation completes. FutureSmart 4 Follow these steps if your printer has a FutureSmart 4 control panel. 1.

Glossary for Network printing terms and concepts Client-server printing On a client-server network, client computers send print jobs to a dedicated network server that controls the use of each installed printer. The HP Jetdirect print server receives print jobs over the network under the network server’s control, or can automatically monitor print queues and de-spool print jobs from the network server.
Glossary for Wireless LAN terms and concepts Access point An access point is a device that typically serves as a bridge or gateway between wireless devices and the devices on a cabled network. An access point must be able to receive and forward network traffic between wireless and cabled network devices. Multiple access points can act as repeaters to extend the range of a wireless network. Connecting via an access point is called infrastructure mode. On Apple networks, this is called AirPort network mode.
● Dynamic encryption: For advanced encryption methods, dynamic encryption protocols are used. For dynamic encryption protocols, encryption keys are automatically changed at routine intervals making them difficult to decipher. Dynamic encryption protocols, such as dynamic WEP and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2), provide a more secure wireless environment. When configured for WPA/WPA2–Personal authentication, HP Jetdirect print servers use WPA encryption.
Signal range The range over which wireless devices can communicate depends on the physical environment and the orientation of the HP Jetdirect print server. In general, while radio waves can bounce off obstacles to access print servers, it is best to have clear line-of-sight access between devices without obstacles through which the signal must pass. NOTE: Signal range and wireless transmission performance is reduced with increasing distance between devices, and with obstacles that block or absorb signals.
