1 Introducing the HP Jetdirect Print
Server
HP Jetdirect print servers allow you to connect printers and other devices directly to a network. By
attaching a device directly to a network, you can install it in a convenient location and share it with
multiple users. In addition, a network connection allows data transfers to or from the device at network
speeds.
●
HP Jetdirect embedded print servers are integrated with a supported printer or multifunction
peripheral (MFP). Because they are built directly into the printer's mother board, the print server
cannot be independently purchased or replaced. However, depending on the printer (or MFP), they
are assigned an HP part number for compatibility and identification purposes.
●
HP Jetdirect EIO internal print servers are modular I/O cards installed in HP printers (or MFPs) that
have a compatible enhanced input/output (EIO) slot.
●
HP Jetdirect external print servers connect printers (or MFPs) to the network by adapting a printer's
input/output connector, such as a USB port, to the network.
NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, the term print server in this manual refers to an HP Jetdirect
print server and not a separate computer running print server software.
