Solve connectivity problems Solve direct-connect problems If you have connected the product directly to a computer, check the USB cable. ● Verify that the USB cable is connected to the computer and to the product. ● Verify that the USB cable is not longer than 2 m (6.5 ft). Replace the cable if necessary. ● Verify that the USB cable is working correctly by connecting it to another product. Connect the cable to another port on the computer. Replace the cable if necessary. Solve network problems Check the following items to verify that the product is communicating with the network. Before beginning, print a configuration page. Problem Solution Poor physical connection Verify that the product is attached to the correct network port using a cable of the correct length. Verify that cable connections are secure. Look at the network port connection on the back of the product, and verify that the amber activity light and the green link-status light are lit. If the problem continues, try a different cable or port on the hub. The computer is unable to communicate Use the command prompt to ping the product from your computer. For example: with the product. ping 192.168.45.39 Verify that the ping displays round-trip times, which indicates that it is working. If the ping command failed, verify that the network hubs are on, and then verify that the network settings, the product, and the computer are all configured for the same network. Incorrect link and duplex settings Hewlett-Packard recommends leaving this setting in automatic mode (the default setting). Incorrect IP address for the product on the computer Use the correct IP address. The IP address is listed on the configuration page. Open the product Properties and click the Ports tab. Verify that the current IP address for the product is selected. ● If you installed the product using the HP standard TCP/IP port, select the box labeled Always print to this printer, even if its IP address changes. ● If you installed the product using a Microsoft standard TCP/IP port, use the hostname instead of the IP address. New software programs have caused compatibility problems. If the IP address is correct, delete the product and then add it again. Verify that any new software programs are correctly installed and that they use the correct printer driver. 160 Chapter 2 Solve problems ENWW
