Basically, however it supports the Lexlink protocol that OS/400 has had 
support for built in for many years now, that provides a much higher level 
of control over the printer - basically equivalent to a twinax attached 
printer.  You configure it with the MAC address.  The only problem is the 
Lexlink protocol isn't routable so it's restricted to your local LAN.  For 
WAN the Lexmark MarkNet print servers can also handle LPR/LPD with TCP/IP 
support.

Is a "MarkNet" like an external HP jet direct?
