Troubleshooting
Use the following information if a problem occurs:
•
Ethernet connection: If the yellow LED is not on:
– the network is not connected.
– the network cable is connected to an ISDN instead of a network.
Both outlet types look the same.
– an incorrect cable is connected.
– the hub/switch is defective.
– the printer board is defective.
•
IP parameter: Ping the printer. If you cannot ping the printer, turn the printer
off and then on. Ping every device in the path to the printer - access points,
routers, etc. Any device you cannot ping needs attention.
