							I/O submenu
Items in the I/O (input/output) submenu affect the communication between the MFP and the
computer.
To gain access to this menu, touch  CONFIGURE DEVICE, and then touch I/O.
ItemValuesExplanation
I/O TIMEOUT5 to  300Use this to select the I/O
timeout period in seconds. (I/O
timeout refers to the time,
measured in seconds, that the
MFP waits before ending a
print job.)
Use this setting to adjust
timeout for best performance. If
data from other ports appear in
the middle of your print job,
increase the timeout value.
PARALLEL INPUTHIGH SPEED
ADVANCED FUNCTIONSHIGH SPEED  accepts faster
parallel communications used
for connections with newer
computers.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
turns the bidirectional parallel
communication on or off. The
default is set for a bidirectional
parallel port (IEEE-1284). This
setting allows the MFP to send
status readback messages to
the computer. (Turning the
parallel advanced functions on
might slow language switching.)
FIND SEND GATEWAYSNo value to selectThis item searches the network
for both SMTP and LDAP
gateways that can be used to
send e-mail.
SMTP GATEWAYNo value to selectThis is the IP address of the
SMTP Gateway that is used for
sending e-mail.
LDAP GATEWAYNo value to selectThis is the IP address of the
LDAP Gateway that is used for
looking up e-mail address
information.

							EIO X Jetdirect submenu
The EIO (enhanced input/output) submenu appears only when an EIO device (such as an
HP Jetdirect print server) is installed in an EIO slot on the MFP. The items in the menu
depend on the particular accessory product that is installed. If the MFP contains an
HP Jetdirect print server EIO card, you can configure basic networking parameters by using
the EIO menu. These and other parameters  can also be configured by using HP Web
Jetadmin or other network configuration tools (such  as by using Telnet or browsing the
embedded Web server).
For more information about the EIO submenu, see the documentation that came with the
HP Jetdirect card.
Embedded Jetdirect submenu
To gain access to this menu, touch  CONFIGURE DEVICE, and then touch EMBEDDED

degree of Internet security, for those
clients.
To specify a proxy server, enter its IP
address or fully-qualified domain
name. The name can be up to 64

OFFTurns sleep mode on or off.
Using sleep mode offers the
following advantages:
● Minimizes the amount of
power that the MFP
consumes when it is idle
● Reduces wear on
electronic components in
the MFP
The MFP automatically exits
sleep mode when you send a
print job, receive a fax, touch
any button on the control panel,
touch any part of the
touchscreen, open the scanner
lid, or load media into the ADF.
You can set how long the MFP
remains idle before it enters
sleep mode. See the  SLEEP
DELAY  information in the
System setup submenu .
