Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but AFAIK, you need NOS 2.1 (not 2.0) to
support Ethernet. Whether this is due to additional routines present only
in 2.1, or if this is a secondary effect (i.e., if the required drivers etc.
only function under the version of NIE that, in turn, only works on 2.1), is
not clear to me. However, wasn't there some talk recently about using
something like an EtherPrint box (serial printer - to - ethernet) to get an
MP130 onto an Ethernet-based network??
