DIAGNOSTICSEMBEDDED TESTS This menu provides tests to help diagnose network
hardware or TCP/IP network connection problems.
Embedded tests help to identify whether a network fault
is internal or external to the product. Use an embedded
test to check hardware and communication paths on
the print server. After you select and enable a test and
set the execution time, you must select EXECUTE to
initiate the test.
Depending on the execution time, a selected test runs
continuously until either the product is turned off, or an
error occurs and a diagnostic page is printed.
  LAN HW TESTCAUTION:Running this embedded test will erase
your TCP/IP configuration.
This test performs an internal loopback test. An internal
loopback test will send and receive packets only on the
internal network hardware. There are no external
transmissions on your network.
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
  HTTP TESTThis test checks operation of HTTP by retrieving
predefined pages from the product, and tests the
embedded Web server.
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
  SNMP TESTThis test checks operation of SNMP communications
by accessing predefined SNMP objects on the product.

problems on an HP postscript level 3 emulation
product. It sends a predefined PS file to the product,
However, the test is paperless, so the file does not
print.
Select YES to choose this test, or NO to not choose it.
  SELECT ALL TESTSSelect this item to run all the embedded tests. Select
YES to run all tests, or select NO to not run all tests.
  EXECUTION TIME [H]Use this item to specify the length of time (in hours) that
an embedded test will be run. You can select a value
from 1 to 60 hours. If you select zero (0), the test runs
indefinitely until an error occurs or the product is turned
off.
Data gathered from the HTTP, SNMP, and Data Path
tests is printed after the tests have completed.
  EXECUTENO*: Do not initiate the selected tests.
YES: Initiate the selected tests.
 PING TEST This test is used to check network communications.
This test sends link-level packets to a remote network
host, then waits for an appropriate response.

node.
  DEST IPV4Type the IPv4 address.
  DEST IPV6Type the IPv6 address.
  PACKET SIZESpecify the size of each packet, in bytes, to be sent to
the remote host. The minimum is 64 (default) and the
maximum is 2048.

response from the remote host. The default is 1 and
the maximum is 100.
  COUNTSpecify the number of ping test packets to send for this
test. Select a value from 1 to 100. To configure the test
to run continuously, select 0.
  PRINT RESULTSIf the ping test was not set for continuous operation,
you can choose to print the test results. Select YES to
print results. If you select NO (default), results are not
printed.

the ping test data with current results. Select YES to
update the data, or NO to maintain the existing data.
However, a refresh automatically occurs when the
menu times out or you manually return to the main
menu.
LINK SPEED  The link speed and communication mode of the print
server must match the network. The available settings
depend on the product and installed print server. Select
one of the following link configuration settings:
CAUTION:If you change the link setting, network
communications with the print server and network
device might be lost.
AUTO*: The print server uses auto-negotiation to
configure itself with the highest link speed and
communication mode allowed. If auto-negotiation fails,
either 100TX HALF or 10TX HALF is set depending on
the detected link speed of the hub/switch port. (A
1000T half-duplex selection is not supported.)
10T HALF: 10 Mbps, half-duplex operation.
10T FULL: 10 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
100TX HALF: 100 Mbps, half-duplex operation.
100TX FULL: 100 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
100TX AUTO: Limits auto-negotiation to a maximum
link speed of 100 Mbps.
1000TX FULL: 1000 Mbps, full-duplex operation.
PRINT PROTOCOLS    Use this item to print a page that lists the configuration
of the following protocols: IPX/SPX, Novell NetWare,

RESTORE FACTORY
SETTINGSThere is no value to select.Performs a simple reset and restores most of the factory
(default) and network settings. This item also clears the input
buffer for the active I/O.
CAUTION:Restoring factory settings during a print job
cancels the print job.
SLEEP MODE ON
OFFTurns Sleep mode on or off. Using Sleep mode offers the
following advantages:
●Minimizes the amount of power that the product
consumes when it is idle.
●Reduces wear on electronic components in the product
(turns off the display backlight, but the display is still
readable).
The product automatically comes out of Sleep mode when you
send a print job, press a control-panel button, open a tray, or
open the top cover.
You can set how long the product remains idle before it enters
Sleep mode.
The default setting is ON.
