■ Hold down the test button on the back of the print server for at least five
seconds to reset the print server to its factory defaults. The print server’s
green and yellow lights come on briefly when it resets.
If you’ve already configured the print server, you need to run
WP-Admin again to reconfigure it.
■
Try restarting your computer.
■ Make sure your computer, print server, and access point (if you have one)
are within range (up to 120 feet without obstructions). If you are on a
different floor or several rooms away from the print server, try moving
your equipment closer together.
■ Move the print server away from large metal objects and other devices
that interfere with radio signals, such as cordless phones and microwave
ovens.
■ Make sure the wireless mode for your computer is set to Infrastructure if
you are connecting through an access point, or 802.11b Ad Hoc if you
are connecting without an access point. (Your wireless adapter may use
different terms. Check the documentation for your adapter.) Never select
a pseudo ad hoc or proprietary ad hoc mode.
■ Make sure your print server’s IP address is on the same network segment
as your computer’s IP address. (See “IP Address” on page 50 for
instructions on accessing your computer’s IP address.)
For example, if you have two computers on your network whose IP
addresses are 192.189.207.3 and 192.189.207.4, the print server’s IP
address should begin with 192.189.207. The last part of the address can
be any number between 1 and 254 except 3 or 4. To check the print
server’s IP address, press the test button on the back of the print server for
one second to print a status sheet.
It’s best to change your print server’s IP address rather than the
computer’s. IP addresses are used to configure computers for a
many functions, from Internet access to file sharing.
