Network printing (network port)

I have some devices where I have to hold the reset for 20 seconds. So try holding it longer. And make sure the print server is powered up when you do it.

check the network printing settings in the printer, its a problem in the settings somewhere, unless theres a fault somewhere.

no it can't however it should have a 10/100Base-TX ethernet port. You should be able to plug it into a Wireless Router and be able to access it via an ethernet ip network. However you would have to set the laser fs-1118mfp printer to an appropiate IP address and subnet mask and set the router to issue DCHP to Ip addresses outside the printer range of IP addresses. So for example 192.168.0.1 router 192.168.0.2 could be assigned to printer and DHCP leases assigned to 192.168.0.10 - 192.168.0.254 using a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 for all the ip addresses. The router could communicate with laptops via wireless but each laptop would need the laptop operating system driver for the printer added and the ip address would be 192.168.0.2 for the printer. it could also be done on 10.0.0.whatever 10.0.0.1 router 10.0.0.2 printer 10.0.0.10 -10.0.0.254 DHCP server leases. If you have a ethernet network already you could just add a wireless access point to the network .

You can use wifi OR ethernet, configure in user tools. -Carl

When configuring an address for the printer, the IP configuration might look like (just an example):

IP Address - 192.168.1.2

Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1

It's important to note that even though you are not using any IP addresses in the default range for DHCP, the Subnet Mask and Default Gateway addresses will be THE SAME.

If you have another device on your network that will be assign a fixed address, you would use for example:

IP Address - 192.168.1.3

Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1

For any other devices, just increment the IP address by one, 192.168.1.4, 192.168.1.5, etc and use the same Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.
(see the owners manual or site for steps on configuraing the printer TCP/IP information). This should take care of any conflicts.

First find out the IP address , Subnet mask,and Gateway addresses of your ISP ( Internet Service Provider ). According to above addresses, you have to complete the network settings of your printer by mentioning the different IP address .

To find out the above mentioned addresses, first open the control panel -> network connections -> local area connction -> properties -> Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPV4) OR Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPV6)according to your ISP -> Properties

By the systematic selection as mentioned above you will get the IP address, subnet mask and Gateway addresses.

Suppose your IP address is 192.168.0.10 , the gateway may be 192.168.0.1 Or any number. And the subnet mask may be XYY.XYY.XYY.0.

According to your ISP addresses you have to complete the network settings of your printer. First press the additional functions -> system settings -> network settings -> TCP/IP settings -> fill up the addresses as follows.

IP address : 192.168.0.16 OR any number .

subnet mask : XYY.XYY.XYY.0.

Gateway : 192.168.0.1

Hurray ! the problem about your network connection with the printer to your computer will be automatically solved.

If you have configured every thing correctly , the problem may be with the network cable. There are (2) types of network cables are available.They are 1). cross net work cable ,2). Parallel network cable. I think you have used the parallel network cable. Now try to purchase the cross network cable or you may prepare it if you are awre about it. Hurray ! your problem will be solved automatically.
Even though if your problem is not solved , kindly follow the instructions as follows;

Take out the Network Confirguration page from the printer.
To get the page.
Press the setup button.
Go to Network Setup>>>View Network Settings>>Network Configuration page. Press OK to get it printed.
Note down the IP address of the printer.
Then Go to The Printers folder under Control Panel.
Make right click on the printer icon and select Properties or printer properties in case of windows 7.
Go to Ports tab.
Click on Add a Port. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP
Enter the IP address that you have noted down from the Cofiguration Page.
And complete the Add a port wizard.
Then restart the printer.
. If you are using a DSL router, then enter Manual IP to the Printer.
Make sure it is different from the IP of other devices on network.
You must have default gateway, subnet mask information about the network.
To get the details.
Open Command Prompt on your computer from All Programs>>Accessories.
Enter ipconfig and press enter.
Then note down the IP address, default gateway and subnet mask.
To enter the manual IP to the printer, Press setup button. Go to Network Setup. Select Advance Settings>>>>IP Settings>>>manual IP.
Enter Ip address of priner as 192.168.001.023.
The default gateway must be 192.168.1.1, make sure that first 3 set of numbers are same. like 192.168.1, last 3 should be different from the computer's one.
Enter the same default gateway and same subnet mask
And after adding the manual IP, use ADD a Port option. Restart the printer and then check the status.
To make sure, make a right click on the printer icon and select Use Printer Online.

The problem is you want to have the printer on a fixed IP address. This can be done by reserving the IP for the mac address of the printer in the router OR simpler just set the IP address in the printer.

Change IP settings
The default setting for the IP settings is Automatic, which sets the IP settings
automatically. However, if you are an advanced user, you might want to manually change
the IP address, subnet mask, or the default gateway. To see the IP address and subnet
mask of the HP All-in-One, print a network configuration page from the HP All-in-One.
NOTE: When manually entering an IP Setting, you must already be connected to an
active Network, otherwise the setting will not stay when you exit from the menu.
CAUTION: Be careful when manually assigning an IP address. If you enter an invalid
IP address during the installation, your network components will not be able to connect
with the HP All-in-One.
To change IP settings
1. Press Setup.
2. Press until Network is highlighted, then press OK.
The Network menu appears.
3. Press until Advanced Setup is highlighted, and then press OK.
4. Press until IP Settings is highlighted, and then press OK.
If the HP All-in-One is already connected to a wired network, you are prompted to
confirm that you want to change the IP settings. Press OK.
5. Press until Manual is highlighted, and then press OK.
6. Press to highlight one of the following IP settings, and then press OK.
• IP Address
• Subnet Mask
• Default Gateway
7. Enter your changes, and then press OK to confirm the setting.
