Why is my Sharp Printer not detected on the network?
- RRebecca GarciaJul 31, 2025
If your Sharp Printer isn't being detected on the network, it could be due to a few reasons. First, ensure that the IP address is correctly configured in the "Network Settings" within the machine's system settings (administrator). If the machine and your computer are not connected to the same local area network, the machine will not be detected. If they are connected to different sub-networks, click the [Specify condition] button and enter the machine's name (host name) or IP address to search for the machine. Also, verify that the main power switch and the [POWER] key are both switched on. Finally, ensure the network cable is securely connected to both your computer and the printer, including checking the connections at the hub.
