600
Cause
Confirm whether the LPD port
is activated.
Cause
If a machine assigned the same
printer name already existed on
the network, the printer names
is automatically changed when
starting the machine.
Therefore, depending on the
timing of starting the printer,
the machine may be started
with a different name, and
documents are printed by
another machine.
If the machine is turned on
before it is connected to a
network, clients may not be
able to identify the printer
name and therefore cannot
browse the printer.
Check point
When printing with a printer
detected by using Bonjour,
select the [Enabled] check box
of [LPD] to activate the port.
Check point
A machine that is assigned the
same printer name may exist
on the network. Confirm the
printer name, and change the
name if it is duplicated.
Turn the machine on after
connecting to the network. If
the machine is turned on while
disconnected from the
network, turn the machine off,
connect it to the network, and
then turn the machine on
again.
