The Hp Jetdirect 640N Print Server - HP Jetdirect 640n Setup Manual

The HP Jetdirect 640n Print Server provides a single RJ-45 connector port for a network connection

using an unshielded, twisted-pair network cable. It also contains a high-speed USB connector on the

front panel.

The HP Jetdirect 640n Print Server supports connection to IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, IEEE 802.3u

100Base-TX Fast Ethernet and 802.3ab 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet compliant networks. When

connected and powered on, the print server auto-negotiates with your network to operate with a link

speed of either 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps, and to communicate using full- or half-duplex mode. However,

you can manually configure the link using the printer control panel, or through other configuration

tools once network communications is established.

The HP Jetdirect 640n Print Server can support multiple network protocols simultaneously, including

TCP/IPv4, TCP/IPv6, IPX/SPX, AppleTalk (EtherTalk), and DLC/LLC. For security, the print server

includes features to control IP traffic to and from the device and supports configuration of IP Security

(IPsec) protocols.

NOTE:

By factory default, only TCP/IP is enabled; other network protocols are disabled.
