replies: text: You're right, there's not much to be done, unless there's some discussion about what the technology actually is (what's the protocol, message structure, command features, etc) instead of just what hardware is supports. Also, would it be a good idea to arrange all the feature data in comparison tables? --Scraimer 02:02, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I tried organizing the features for the external models as a table, and I like it.  I'm going to do the rest now.  After that, we just need some references and we can probably remove the wikify template.  (Where did this article come from, by the way?  It sounds like it might have been written by someone at HP. :) ) Adam 21:26, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: On second thought, the Internal Print Servers section doesn't look nearly as bad as the External section did, so I'm going to leave it as-is and change the Wikify template to a "references needed" template. Adam 21:36, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

text: I guess you got me. I wrote the article orginially, then registered so I could do more articles. I am a contract employee to HP doing support for the Jetdirect and while browsing the wiki felt there should be an article on this product because it is unique enough that it should be included. So I pulled informaion from all the sources I could find and collated it together into the article. What you guys have done looks wicked. If I find more info on the product I'll post it. What other information should I put on the page? DragonChi 04:03, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't think it's correct to describe JetDirect as a "technology", it's a print server brand.--DStoykov (talk) 20:56, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: But there is a separate JetDirect protocol that differentiates it from other network print servers. The hardware and software protocol together make it a different "technology" from other print servers. It makes sense to me at least. DiddyWolf (talk) 14:44, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Technology? 

message: The article states that the ASIC issue is caused by overheating or data overload, however this is not consistent with another source which claims the problem is due to cold solder joints between the main ASIC and the printed circuit board. The remedy of heating the circuit board with a heat gun or oven to reflow the solder joints, for which there are several reports of success in the linked document, supports the theory that cold solder joints are responsible for the issue.

thread_title:  JetDirect 615n "ASIC issue" 

message: Some of the external JetDirect models prior to the EX Plus series had a SIMM socket for ROM upgrades. After several updates, each requiring all new and expensive SIMMs, HP developed a flash memory SIMM which gave them the same remote upgrade capability as the newer models. If you have one of those older JetDirect servers without any SIMM, especially the flash SIMM, you may as well forget trying to find them. They're long discontinued and many users never bothered to buy any ROM SIMMs let alone the flash SIMM. The servers are still usable, but of course are only 10 megabit (for Ethernet and ThinNet) and do not support DHCP, though they can have addresses remotely assigned using BootP.
