Description

 

 

 

05

NO SIGNAL DETECTED

(802.11 Wireless, Infrastructure Mode only) The print server did not find an access

 

 

point and did not detect a radio signal.

 

 

Check for sources of radio signal interference. If possible, elevate the print server or the

 

 

external antenna (if applicable). Verify other wireless devices are turned on and

 

 

located in wireless signal range of the print server.

ENCRYPTION REQUIRED

Encryption is required on this network, but the encryption settings are incorrect. Check

 

 

the encryption settings.

 

 

 

07

LAN ERROR - CONTROLLER CHIP

Check the network connections. If they are intact, run the self-test by turning the printer

 

 

off, and then on again. If the error persists, replace the HP Jetdirect print server.

 

 

 

07

AUTHENTICATION FAILED

Print server could not access the network because of an authentication error. The error

 

 

depends on the authentication method used.

 

 

Verify the authentication method and settings.

specified SSID (network name). Check your specified SSID, or check status of the

 

 

access point (Infrastructure mode) or other wireless devices.

 

 

The print server continues to scan for the specified SSID.

 

 

 

09

LAN ERROR - BABBLE

Check the network connections. If the connections are intact, run the self-test by turning

 

 

the printer off, and then on again. If the error persists, replace the print server.

 

 

0A LAN ERROR - NO SQE

(Ethernet) Check the network connections. If the connections are intact, run the self-test

 

 

by turning the print server off, and then on again. If the error persists, replace the print

 

 

server.

 

 

0C LAN ERROR - RECEIVER OFF

Check the cabling and connectors on your Ethernet network. If you cannot find a

 

 

problem with your network cabling, run the self-test by turning the printer off, and then

 

 

on again. If the error persists, there might be a problem with the HP Jetdirect print

 

 

server.

 

 

0D LAN ERROR - TRANSMITTER OFF

Check the cabling and connectors on your Ethernet network. If you cannot find a

 

 

problem with your network cabling, run the self-test by turning the printer off, and then

 

 

on again. If the error persists, there might be a problem with the HP Jetdirect print

 

 

server.

 

 

0E LAN ERROR - LOSS OF CARRIER

Check the network connections. If the connections are intact, run the self-test: turn the

 

 

printer off, and then on again. If the error persists, replace the HP Jetdirect print server.

 

 

 

10

LAN ERROR - UNDERFLOW

(Ethernet) Check the cabling and connectors on your network. If you cannot find a

 

 

problem with your network cabling, run the self-test by turning the printer off, and then

 

 

on again. If the error persists, there might be a problem with the HP Jetdirect print

 

 

server.

 

 

 

11

LAN ERROR - RETRY FAULTS

(Ethernet) There is a problem with your network cabling or external network

 

 

configuration. Verify operation of the hub or switch port.
