Hardware & LAN Problems
Problem No. 1 | All the Print Server's LEDs are off. |
Solution No. 1 | Check the power supply or power connection. |
Problem No. 2 | Print Server's status light continuously stays lit. |
Solution No. 2 | Reset Print Server by unplugging the power supply and plugging |
| it back in. |
Problem No. 3 | Print Server's status light and power light stay on continuously |
| and do not turn off. |
Solution No. 3 | Reset the Print Server by unplugging the power supply or by |
| pushing the reset push button, if fitted. |
Problem No. 4 | The Print Server unit can not be found on the LAN, so |
| configuration is not possible. |
Solution No. 4 | If using 10/100BaseT: |
| ■ Check the Hub. The link LED for the port to which the Print |
| Server is connected should be ON. If it is Off, there is a |
| problem in the network cable. |
| ■ On the Print Server , check the LED(s) next to the connector. |
| If the LED is not ON (or neither LED is On, if there are 2), |
| the network connection is not working.Check the Ethernet |
| cable and connectors. If they seem OK, set the DIP Switches |
| of the Print Server to match your LAN environment. |
| If using TCP/IP: |
| ■ Ensure that there are no routers between the Print Server and |
| the computer used for configuration. |
| ■ Ensure that the computer used for configuration has the |
| TCP/IP network protocol installed. Test its network |
| connection by seeing if you can locate other LAN devices |
| from the computer. (e.g. Use Network Neighborhood and try |
| to browser the network.) |
Problem No. 5 | I am using DHCP, and getting an IP Address conflict involving |
| the Print Server . |
Solution No. 5 | If the Print Server is left on, but the DHCP server is turned off, |
| then the Print Server will retain its IP Address without the |
| DHCP Server being aware of it. Simply reset the Print Server so |
| it will obtain a new IP Address.This problem would also arise if |
| you assigned static IP Address, which is within the range used |
| by the DHCP server. If so, use another address which is NOT |
| within the range used by the DHCP server. |
