TCP/IP settings are correct. Is the IP address entered 
and valid? Are the Gateway and Subnet settings correct?

within the same network? If not, the equipment might 
have an IP address that is out of range or invalid.
Next Step
Contact your local network specialist for a valid IP 
address for the equipment.

network?

if the NIC is functional by restoring the default settings. 
When the equipment automatically reboots and an NIC 
Configuration page is printed, does the device name 
include the NIC’s unit serial number?
Next Step
The NIC is faulty or improperly installed. Contact your 
dealer.

equipment and also the integrity of the network cable, 
hub, or switch that is connecting the equipment to the
