Troubleshooting 5-5
Unable to Communicate with the Print
Server
During Initial Setup
Verify the following:
Your wireless computer is configured to match the default wireless
network settings on the HP Jetdirect print server:
Communication Mode: Ad Hoc
Network Name (SSID): hpsetup
Encryption (WEP): <Disabled>
Note
The Network Name (SSID) is case-sensitive. Be sure
to use lowercase characters.
If you make an error in entering configuration
settings, you may be unable to connect to the
network.
If your connection fails after entering configuration
settings, you must reset the print server to factory-
default settings (“cold reset”) and try again.
The HP Jetdirect print server is turned on and operating properly
(print a Jetdirect configuration page).
You are within range of the HP Jetdirect print server.
There are fewer than six devices total on the Ad Hoc network (with
SSID “hpsetup”).
There is no Access Point in the vicinity that is configured with an
SSID of “hpsetup”.
(For Telnet or embedded Web server access) Multiple print servers
are not being configured at the same time. If there are multiple print
servers, turn all off except the one you want to configure.
