Cannot connect the printer to the network
Cannot connect the printer to the network
Cause Corrective Action
The Ethernet cable
is not connected
correctly to the
printer's Ethernet
port.
1.
Make sure the printer is connected to the network with the correct Ethernet cable, and then turn the printer
on. For instructions on connecting the cable, refer to the Setup Guide.
2.
Make sure the Link indicator is lit.
The Link indicator is green if the printer is connected via 100 Base-TX and orange if connected via
10Base-T.
If the Link indicator is not lit, check the following points.
•
Make sure the hub is on.
•
Make sure the end of the Ethernet cable is connected correctly.
Insert the Ethernet cable until it clicks and locks in place.
•
Make sure there is no problem with the Ethernet cable.
If there is any problem, replace the Ethernet cable.
•
Check the communication mode with the hub.
Although the printer normally detects the hub communication mode and transmission rate automatical-
ly (in auto negotiation mode), sometimes the hub settings cannot be detected. In this case, configure
the connection method manually, specifying the communication mode in use.
(See "Configuring the Communication Mode Manually.") ➔P.496

Cannot print over a NetWare network
Cannot print over a NetWare network
Cause Corrective Action
The printer's NetWare settings
are not configured correctly.
Make sure the printer's NetWare settings are configured correctly. In particular, make sure a valid
frame type is selected.
(See "Configuring the Printer's NetWare Network Settings With RemoteUI.") ➔P.489
The computer you are trying to
print from is not configured cor-
rectly.
Make sure the computer's NetWare settings are configured correctly.
(See "Configuring NetWare Network Settings.") ➔P.484
The NetWare server and serv-
ices are not configured correct-
ly.
Check the following points.
1.
Make sure the NetWare file server is running.
2.
Make sure there is enough free disk space on the NetWare file server. Insufficient disk space
may prevent you from processing large print jobs.
3.
Start NWADMIN or PCONSOLE and confirm that the print service is configured correctly and
the print queue is available.
