minimum system requirements listed in the previous section.
Note Certain Novell NetWare configurations are not supported by the HP LaserJet 1010 software.

Network requirement
The following are required for the HP LaserJet 1010 series printer to work on a network:
For Windows systems
! A cable for your type of network connection (not included). (This cable is used to connect the
HP Jetdirect print server to a network port.)
! An installed network using the TCP/IP or IPX/SPX network protocol.
If the TCP/IP protocol will be used, you must configure the HP Jetdirect print server for a direct
peer-to-peer connection from the computer to the printer for network users to have the full
print functionality of the HP LaserJet 1010 series printer.
If the IPX/SPX protocol will be used, you must configure the HP Jetdirect print server for a
direct peer-to-peer connection (sometimes called IPX direct mode) from the computer to the
printer for network users to have the only print functionality of the HP LaserJet 1010 series
printer.
In order to have full functionality, including the HP Toolbox, you also need TCP/IP.
Note Novell NetWare server configurations (Queue Server, IPX NDPS, IP NDPS, and so on) are not
supported.
