Corrective Action
1. Make sure the printer is connected to the network
with the correct Ethernet cable, and then turn the
printer on. For instructions on connecting the cable,
refer to the Setup Guide .
2. Make sure the Link indicator is lit.
The top and bottom indicators are lit if the printer
is connected via 1000Base-T. The bottom indicator
is green if the printer is connected via 100BASE-
TX, and the top indicator is orange if connected via
10BASE-T.
If the Link indicator is not lit, check the following
points.
• Make sure the hub is on.
• Make sure the end of the Ethernet cable is
connected correctly.
Insert the Ethernet cable until it clicks and locks in
place.
• Make sure there is no problem with the Ethernet
cable.
If there is any problem, replace the Ethernet
cable.
• Check the communication mode with the hub.
Although the printer normally detects the hub
communication mode and transmission rate
automatically (in auto negotiation mode),
sometimes the hub settings cannot be detected.
In this case, configure the connection method
manually, specifying the communication mode in
use.
