A dial-up is generated because a connection to the primary server is attempted periodically. Since this is attributable to the automatic re-connection function, turn the printer with the interface card off and on.

When there is no file server on the local network, NetWare

cannot be used on the local network. In this case, the NetWare

protocol for the interface card is also not available. No dialup is generated under this condition. When the file server on the local network is restored, the interface card is also automatically restored.

For local networks with no file server:

Depending on the router setting, the NetWare protocol can be used without a file server on the local network. This case also follows the first five described above.

For local networks with a primary server

Even if a primary server is installed on the local network, an unnecessary dial-up may be generated depending on the configuration.
