Installing the Hardware

4.If this is the first time you are setting up or verifying NIC operation, push in on the NIC test button for at least five seconds to set all of the NIC configuration parameters to factory defaults.

5.Push in on the test button again for approximately a second (less than 5 seconds) to print a test page.

Retain the test print. It contains information you will need to configure the NIC.

If the test page does not print:

make sure that the NIC is installed securely in the printer.

check the LEDs on the bottom of the NIC. When you turn on the power to the printer, the NIC runs a set of power-up diagnostics. If the NIC operates correctly, the red test LED blinks momentarily and then goes out. The test LED blinking continuously indicates a problem with either the installation of the NIC or the Ethernet cable.

Refer to the chapter “TroubleShooting” for more information on diagnosing the problem.

Configuring the NIC

If the NIC test page printed, configure the NIC for network printing only if you wish to change the default settings. Refer to “Using Configuration Utilities” for information on the various utilities that you can use to configure the NIC.
