Print server takes several min to print

by bruno.moraes . Updated 19 years ago

Problem: whenever I print a document on a printer connected to the print server I get a “failed print” message. After several print “restart” comands (30+) the printer works fine.

Description: I have an HPdeskjet 5550 printer connected to a “generic” print server (CompUSA brand)and I use it to print from two computers (WinXP Pro).

The print server is connected to an ethernet port of the wifi router. One computer also conects to an ethernet port and the other connects using wifi.

The set up page of the print server shows the printer is offline. I will only go online (and print) after several restarts OR if I turn off the print server (by disconnectin it from the power source) and turn it on again.

Any idea on how to solve that?
