The Network Interface Card
The Network Printer 17 attaches to networks and other system configurations through
these optional cards:
IBM Network Card for Ethernet (10BaseT/10Base2)
IBM Network Card for Token Ring
IBM Twinax SCS Interface Card
IBM Coax SCS Interface Card
If you have purchased optional network interface cards for your printer, install them in
the printer following the steps listed in this section. Two cards to connect to two
different systems can be installed.
Note: You cannot install two identical cards. For example, the printer cannot accept
two IBM Network Cards for Ethernet, but can accept an IBM Ethernet card and an IBM
Token Ring card.
A system or network administrator should review the documentation shipped with the
network interface card to configure the printer and your computing environment
correctly.
