If you’ve set the Boot Method in WP-Admin to AUTO or DHCP and unplugged the print server, DHCP may have assigned another IP address to the print server.

To check the IP address, press the test button on the print server for one second to print a status sheet. Then make sure the IP address for your computer is on the same network segment. See “IP Address” on page 50 for instructions on accessing the computer’s IP address. (You can avoid this problem by leaving the print server plugged in, or by setting the Boot Method to STATIC. See page 18 for details.)

If you are using WEP encryption on your wireless network, disable it on your computer before you configure the print server. Then enable WEP on the print server (see page 18). When you’re done configuring the print server, enable WEP on your computer again.

If your access point only allows WEP-enabled clients to connect to it, you may have to set your computer’s wireless mode to 802.11b Ad Hoc (or your adapter’s wireless ad hoc mode) before you configure the print server. If your computer’s wireless mode was originally set to Infrastructure, you can set it back to Infrastructure when you’re done.

You see the message “Wireless Communication Failed” when you click CONFIGURE on the Wireless Server Search window.

Click OK to close the message, then click CONFIGURE again on the Wireless Server Search window. (If WP-Admin is picking up a signal from more than one print server, select the correct print server first.)

If you continue to see this message, move the print server closer to your computer and access point (if you have one). Also, move the print server away from large metal objects and other devices that interfere with radio signals, such as cordless phones and microwave ovens.

You are getting a wireless signal, but you are not able to print.

If you’re running Windows, make sure you set up your network port correctly. See the instructions beginning on page 22.

Make sure your wireless link has adequate signal strength—at least 50 percent. If the signal is weak, try moving the print server and printer to a different location, away from large metal objects and other devices that interfere with radio signals, such as cordless phones and microwave ovens.
