HP4100 returned to network not responding. 1

[Jeremyjm]

Hello,

I had a fuser go on a HP4100(#1) and replaced it with another HP4100(#2) from a different location on the network. The IP was changed and #2 worked like a charm. #1 is now repaired and tested offline, but I can't get anything to print to it from the network. I printed out the config. page and none of the info changed and I'm not sure what to do next.

Can you ping the network card ? Did you verify the ip on the other printer #2 is not a duplicate of #1 ?

I took #2 offline and replaced it with #1, but I didn't change #2's ip back to the original yet. I also never pinged #1. Is that what I'm missing?

I pinged the printer and everything looked good. I will change the ip on #2 then reconnect #1.

You can manage/monitor your HP printers with Webjet admin.
