When using a USB hub, is it being used
o
correctly?
In the USB specification, daisy-chains of up to five USB
hubs are possible. However, we recommend that you
connect the printer to the first hub connected directly
to the computer. Depending on the hub you are
using, the operation of the printer may become
unstable. If this should occur, plug the USB cable
directly into your computer's USB port.
Is the USB hub recognized correctly?
o
Make sure the USB hub is recognized correctly on the
computer. If the computer correctly detects the USB
hub, disconnect all USB hubs from the computer and
connect the printer directly to the computer USB port.
Ask the USB hub manufacturer about USB hub
operation.
You cannot print under the network
environment.
Are the network settings correct?
o
Ask your network administrator for the network
settings.
Connect the printer directly to the computer
o
using a USB cable, and then try to print.
If you are able to print via USB, there is a problem with
network settings. Ask your system administrator, or
refer to the manual for your network system. If you
cannot print via USB, see the appropriate section in
this User's Guide.
