Troubleshooting This section describes typical problems when using the Network print server and tips for solving them. DIP switches cannot be accessed when the fax machine is assembled. Disassembly must be performed to access the card. Switches must be switched off when done. The DIP switch information below is intended for reference only. Disassembly must be performed only by experienced technicians or authorized OKI service personnel.
• Check the fax machine port name for the network print server. The port name may be selected from lp, euc and sjis. Any other name is invalid. If you print via the printer driver, you should select “lp.” • Check that the network print server responds to a ping. • Check that the network cable is properly connected. Replace the cable if necessary. User name in banner page • If you print through LPD, the user name is commonly printed as “unknown” and the file name as the spool file name used.
The fax machine is recognized by utility but cannot establish connection with NetWare server Remote printer mode • Check that the print server for which the unit has been registered has been started up. • Check that the correct print server name has been selected. Check that the name of the print server operating on the file server is the same as the print server name set on the fax machine’s print server. • Check that the correct NetWare port name has been selected.
Problems printing self diagnostics test and configuration Fax machine does not print • Check that DIP switches 3 (configuration printing) and 4 (self-diagnostics testing) have been turned on. Turn the fax machine off before changing the DIP switch settings. • If the fax machine is on-line, turn the power switch off and then on. NG printed in self-diagnostics test results If the ROM check or RAM check result is NG (no good).
