If a problem still exists after reading this chapter, please contact your dealer for technical support. LED Light Indicators The print server is equipped with LED lights to assist in diagnosing problems that are the result of the network and/or the print server hardware itself.
Print Port Related Problems Printing data failure may be caused by a loose connection of the print server to the USB port of the printer. Check to see if any of the pins on the USB connector are damaged. In addition, check the cable connection. If the pins are damaged, contact your dealer for a replacement connector.
11. Repeat the Steps 8-12 for the other Ethernet adapter. 12. Restart the computer. 13. Done. Moving the print server to A New Segment If the print server is moved from one network segment to another after the initial installation, through the Network Print Port, the print server must be reconfigured on the original Windows NT server or on each Windows 95/98 computer using this print server in order for the print server’s driver on each computer to re-establish a new connection.
9. Done! Moving Your Computer to A New Segment If you are using the print server through the Network Print Port on your NT or Windows 95/98/Me computer and your computer is going to be moved onto another segment, you have to reconfigure the print server on your computer to use your print server. However, this situation is like moving the print server to a new segment. Please refer to the “Moving the print server to a new segment” section for more detailed reconfiguration instructions.
B. The print server's IP address is duplicated or is as same as another computer's IP address on the network. If this is the case, please consult your network administrator to obtain an unused IP address for your print server. C. The print server is on one segment and your Windows NT server is on the other segment.
5. Type "edit config.txt" to modify this configuration file. 6. In your editor, modify "BoxIPAddress" field from "0.0.0.0" to "192.72.214.100". Leave other options as default and do not change their values. When done, save this new file and quit from your editor. Please note, in this step you must specify an IP address which is valid on Segment B, such as 192.72.214.100 in this example, rather than 192.72.214.68. 7. Type, for example, "tftp 192.72.214.68 put config.
Appendix: Diagnostic Mode (Wireless) If you have no the twisted-pair cable to configure print server and have problems to configure it on wireless network. Please refer to the following steps: 1.
