The network cable is

Reconnect the data cable to the network port and the printer, 
making sure that it is snapped in. Restart the printer.
The Status page of 
Printer Properties shows 
the printer is not 
available, but the printer 
displays Ready on the

Follow your network troubleshooting procedures to isolate 
and test each component of the computer-to-printer 
communication link.
Suggestions:
 Check the computer-to-network connection by accessing a 
network resource, such as a network drive. 
 Have the network administrator test communication 
between a server and the printer. 
 Make sure that the user is logged in to the network.
The printer is not 
configured with the 
correct network address.
Make sure that the server name or IP address has been 
entered correctly in the Port Settings or Configure Port dialog 
box on the computer. For information about retrieving the 
printer’s IP address, refer to the card printer’s User’s Guide.
Make sure that Ready displays on the printer's LCD panel.
