I can't seem to get the printer to show me what document is printing when I select ABOUT THIS JOB from the front panel.

It used to tell me the name of the document or web address of what I was printing but now it just says "RECIEVING AppSocket".

In PhaserLink Job Accounting only the ip address of the computer shows up no job info, user name or file name.

I have been able to get more info to show up in job accounting by configuring the ip port to print in LPR vs. RAW mode but the front panel still does not show the name of the document currently printing.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?



 
Old printer, I would try re-seating the chip, and all connections in the elect. module.
also reinstall the driver.

It's an oldie but goodie, got it in 1999. I keep finding creative ways to keep the thing running. It is like 50% epoxy from having had to rebuild the crap plastic parts they chose to build much of the paper path from but it is still going strong.

In XP I used IPP which gave me more info than LPR. Since I moved to Windows 7 I can't seem to get IPP to work.

Anyone have any luck with IPP and Win 7?
