The problem may be the result of mismatched or duplicate IP address. Verify that the IP address is correctly loaded into the print server. And make sure that no other nodes on the network have this IP address. For information on how to print the Network Configuration List, see Printing the Network Configuration List on page 25. d Verify that the print server is on your network as follows: „ For Windows® Try pinging the print server from the host operating system command prompt with the command: ping ipaddress Where ipaddress is the print server IP address (note that in some instances it can take up to two minutes for the print server to load its IP address after setting the IP address). „ For Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater 1 From the Go menu, select Applications. 2 Open the Utilities folder. 3 Double click the Terminal icon. 4 Try pinging the print server from the Terminal window: ping ipaddress Where ipaddress is the print server IP address (note that in some instances it can take up to two minutes for the print server to load its IP address after setting the IP address). 10 e If you have tried a to d above and it does not work, then reset the print server back to the default factory settings and try from the initial setup again.
