Configuring the Host Attachments
This procedure lets you view, print, or change the configuration settings of an
installed attachment.
Note: The printer can have multiple sets of configuration data: one for each mode
in which the printer can operate. To update a configuration for a particular
mode, the printer must be running in that mode (for example, Duplex
mode).
The following host attachments are available:
v Parallel Channel
v ESCON Channel
v Token Ring TCP/IP
v Ethernet TCP/IP
v FDDI TCP/IP (for Models ED1/ED2 only)
Before you change a configuration value, please review the configuration
information table for the attachment configuration you are changing:
v “Parallel Channel Configuration Information” on page 232
v “ESCON Channel Configuration Information” on page 234
v “Token Ring TCP/IP Attachment Information” on page 235
v “Ethernet TCP/IP Attachment Information” on page 237
v “FDDI TCP/IP Attachment Information” on page 239
1. Before you print the attachment configuration, ensure that all attachments are
disabled. See “Enabling and Disabling Attachments” on page 63 for more
information. You do not need to disable attachments if you are viewing or
changing the configuration.
2. To access the configuration settings, do one of the following:
v In duplex mode, SELECT the Configure pull-down menu on the main
Display Touch Screen window.
v In dual simplex mode, SELECT the Configure pull-down menu on the
Display Touch Screen window of the printer with which you want to work.
3. SELECT the Configure Attachments procedure. You see the Configure
Attachments window. This window lists the attachments that are currently
installed. It also lists the attachments that are not installed but are present in
the control unit and could be installed.
