1. First make sure that the print server is securely plugged in to the

printer.

2. Wait about two minutes after the printer is powered ON, and then

run a print server self-test by pushing the button on the back of the
print server for less than five seconds.

NOTE: Pushing the button for more than five seconds will reset the print

server to factory defaults.
