Check your network setup

Make sure you are not using a phone cord or a crossover cable to connect the printer to the

network.

Make sure the network cable is securely connected to the printer.

Make sure the network hub, switch, or router is turned on and working correctly.

Check the computer

Make sure the computer that you are using is connected to the network.

NOTE: To use the EWS, the printer must be connected to a network. You cannot use the

embedded web server if the printer is connected to a computer with a USB cable.

Check your web browser

Make sure the web browser meets the minimum system requirements. For more information,

see system requirements in the Readme file.

If your web browser uses any proxy settings to connect to the Internet, try turning off these

settings. For more information, see the documentation available with your web browser.

Make sure JavaScript and cookies are enabled in your web browser. For more information, see

Check the printer IP address

To check the IP address of the printer, obtain the IP address by printing a network configuration

page. From the printer control panel display, touch (Wireless), touch Settings, and then touch

Print Network Configuration.

Ping the printer using the IP address from the command prompt (Windows) or from Network

Utility (OS X). (Network Utility is located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder at the top

level of the hard disk.)

For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123, type the following at the command prompt

(Windows):

C:\Ping 123.123.123.123

Or

In Network Utility (OS X), click the Ping tab, type the 123.123.123.123 in the box, and then click

Ping.

If a reply appears, the IP address is correct. If a time-out response appears, the IP address is

incorrect.
