■ If you’ve set the Boot Method in WP-Admin to
AUTO
or
DHCP
and
unplugged the print server, DHCP may have assigned another IP address
to the print server.
To check the IP address, press the test button on the print server for one
second to print a status sheet. Then make sure the IP address for your
computer is on the same network segment. See “IP Address” on page 50
for instructions on accessing the computer’s IP address. (You can avoid
this problem by leaving the print server plugged in, or by setting the Boot
Method to
STATIC
. See page 18 for details.)
■ If you are using WEP encryption on your wireless network, disable it on
your computer before you configure the print server. Then enable WEP
on the print server (see page 18). When you’re done configuring the print
server, enable WEP on your computer again.
If your access point only allows WEP-enabled clients to connect
to it, you may have to set your computer’s wireless mode to
802.11b Ad Hoc (or your adapter’s wireless ad hoc mode) before
you configure the print server. If your computer’s wireless mode
was originally set to Infrastructure, you can set it back to
Infrastructure when you’re done.
You see the message “Wireless Communication Failed” when you click
CONFIGURE on the Wireless Server Search window.
■ Click
OK
to close the message, then click
CONFIGURE
again on the
Wireless Server Search window. (If WP-Admin is picking up a signal
from more than one print server, select the correct print server first.)
■ If you continue to see this message, move the print server closer to your
computer and access point (if you have one). Also, move the print server
away from large metal objects and other devices that interfere with radio
signals, such as cordless phones and microwave ovens.
You are getting a wireless signal, but you are not able to print.
■ If you’re running Windows, make sure you set up your network port
correctly. See the instructions beginning on page 22.
■ Make sure your wireless link has adequate signal strength—at least 50
percent. If the signal is weak, try moving the print server and printer to a
different location, away from large metal objects and other devices that
interfere with radio signals, such as cordless phones and microwave ovens.
