I do not know much about networks, but according to everthing I do know if a network printer is connected to a network it should appear as a server in the workgroup and the config page should be accessable via a web browser…. So if anyone can shed a scrap of light on this issue it would be most appreciated:
I have a two fuji xerox docuprint c3210’s, both connected to a router via ethernet. They are both setup exactly the same with a static i.p. address. There are about 20 other computers and a server running business 2003. One printer works great, is seen on the workgroup, is accessable via bonjour and the ping is less than a millisecond. The other one, however, doesn’t appear on the network and I get no response when I ping it. Switching off the one that works properly doesn’t do anything so there’s no conflic there. If I plug the ethernet cable straight from the printer to a computer I can ping it, access the config page via http and everything appears to be fine. All the settings are exactly the same on both.
Any ideas?
