Is the machine connected to the same network (LAN, etc.) as your PC? |
The machine must be connected to the same network
as your PC.
If you do not know which network the machine is connected to, ask
the network administrator. |
|
Have you changed your network environment by replacing a computer or adding a new router? |
The connection to the computer may not be correct
due to a change in IP address caused by replacing your computer
or by a change in the network environment. Contact your network
administrator to confirm that the settings between the machine and
your computer or network environment are correct. |
|
Is the IP address selected correctly? (Windows) |
Check the IP address setting.
If the machine does not have a permanent IP address (the machine
receives an IP address from a DHCP server), printing will not be
possible if the IP address changes.
You can check the machine's IP address in [Network Status] of setting
mode. If the IP address has changed, change the port setting in
the printer driver. "Settings" → [Status] → [Network Status] See: Software Setup Guide If the IP address changes frequently, it is recommended that a permanent IP address be assigned to the machine. "Settings (administrator)" → [System Settings] → [Network Settings] |
|
Are you using a printer port created using Standard TCP/IP Port? (Windows) |
Check the PC settings.
When a port created with Standard TCP/IP Port in Windows is used
and the [SNMP Status Enabled] checkbox is

Is your computer in an unstable state? |
Restart your computer.
Printing is sometimes not possible when you run multiple applications
at once or there is insufficient memory or local drive space. Restart
your computer. |
|
Is the machine specified correctly in the application that you are using for printing? |
Check whether the machine's printer driver has
been selected from the print window of the application.
If the machine's printer driver does not appear in the list of available
printer drivers, it may not be installed correctly. Remove the
printer driver and then install it once again.
See: Software Setup Guide |
|
Are the network connection devices operating normally? |
Make sure that the routers and other network connection
devices are operating correctly.
If a device is not powered on or is in an error state, see the manual
of the device to correct the problem. |
|
Is the I/O timeout setting too short? |
Check with your administrator.
If the I/O timeout setting is too short, errors may occur while
writing to the printer. Ask the administrator of the machine to
configure an appropriate time in "I/O Timeout".
"Settings (administrator)" → [System Settings] → [Printer Settings]
→ [Condition Settings] → [I/O Timeout]. |
|
Was a Notice Page printed? |
Check the Notice Page.
A Notice Page will be printed to indicate the cause of the problem
if a print job cannot be performed as specified and the cause is
not shown in the display. Read the printed page and take appropriate
actions.

Is your computer or the machine in an unstable state? |
Cancel printing, restart your PC and the machine,
and try printing again.
If there is only a small amount of free space remaining in the memory
or local drive of your PC, or if a large number of jobs have been
spooled on the machine and only a small amount of free space remains,
text may be printed as garbled characters.
To cancel printing:
If some printed characters are still garbled after restarting, ask your administrator to lengthen the timeout setting of [I/O Timeout] in the setting mode. "Settings (administrator)" → [System Settings] → [Printer Settings] → [Condition Settings] → [I/O Timeout]. If garbled characters are being still printed after the above measures are taken, remove and then reinstall the printer driver. |
