# When using NetWare (file server)

If the NetWare file server and printer are on opposite sides of a router, packets are sent back and forth continuously, possibly incurring communications charges. Because packet transmission is a feature of NetWare, you need to change the configuration of the router. If the network you are using does not allow you to configure the router, configure the machine instead.

Filter packets so they do not pass over the dial-up router.

The MAC address of the filtering printer is printed on the printer configuration page.

For more information about configuring the printer if the router cannot be configured, see the following instructions.

Configuring the printer with NetWare

Following the setup method described earlier in this manual, configure the file server.

Set the frame type for NetWare environment.

Configuring the printer without NetWare

When not printing, the network interface board sends packets over the network. Set NetWare to "inactive".

- For more information about selecting a frame type, see "Interface Settings".

- For more information about selecting a protocol, see "Interface Settings".
