If the ping is unsuccessful:
If your ping is not successful, verify the following:
The printer is powered on.
The cables are properly connected between the printer and the
LAN.
The Network Interface Card (NIC) in the printer is functioning
properly. (Consult your Xerox service representative.)
There is proper connectivity to the Multi-station Access Unit
(MAU), if one is being used.
The IP address used to define the printer in PSF is unique in
the TCP/IP network.
The IP address of the MVS system is unique. If not, consult
your network administrator to resolve the address problem.
The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) size of the IP packet for
the MVS system is equal to the MTU size of the printer. (For
information about the values recommended for the MVS
system, see the GATEWAY statement in table B-8.)
To change the MTU size for the MVS system, change the
GATEWAY statement in the MVS TCP/IP profile, and
restart TCP/IP to activate the changes.
If you are running RouteD, the maximum MTU size is the
one specified on the BSDROUTINGPARMS statement
(MTU).
The default MTU value in the IPS printer is 2052. To
change the MTU size for the printer, refer to the Sun
network software documentation.
If these items are all in order, consult your network
administrator about a possible network problem.
