Wireless print server not installed

You may see a message during installation indicating that the printer does not have a wireless print server installed. If you are sure the printer is capable of wireless printing, try the following:

CHECK POWER

Make sure the light is on.

“Communication not available” message appears when printing wirelessly

Try one or more of the following:

MAKE SURE YOUR COMPUTER AND PRINTER HAVE VALID IP ADDRESSES FOR THE NETWORK

If you are using a laptop and have power saving settings enabled, then you may see the ”Communication not available” message on your computer screen when you attempt to print wirelessly. This can occur if the laptop hard drive has powered down.

If you see this message, then wait a few seconds and then try to print again. The laptop and printer require a few seconds to power up again and reconnect to the wireless network.

If you see this message again after you have waited long enough for the printer and the laptop to connect to the network, then there may be a problem with your wireless network.

Make sure that the laptop and printer have both received IP addresses:
