Operating notes
● If you enter or change a configuration parameter value, click Apply to enable your change, or
click Cancel to erase your change.
●
The HP Embedded Web Server provides access to wireless network connection parameters on
HP Jetdirect wireless print servers.
CAUTION: If you change the wireless network settings, you can lose your connection. To
reconnect, you might need to adjust your system to the new settings.
If the print server loses its network connection, you might need to reset it to a factory-default
state and reinstall it.
●
Changes to the IP address close the connection to the HP Embedded Web Server. To re-
establish a connection, use the new IP address.
CAUTION: Changes to the IP address on the HP Jetdirect print server can cause printing
failures on any clients configured with the previous IP address to print to this printer.
●
For Novell NetWare networks, use the IPX/SPX tab on the Network Settings page to configure
NDS queue server mode parameters. Note that the HP Embedded Web Server cannot create
NDS objects (print server, printer, and print queue) on the Novell server. Instead, use a Novell
NetWare utility, such as NWAdmin, or configure the IPX/SPX stack for NDS using an HP utility,
such as HP Web Jetadmin.
