•
If the indicator blinks green, the Network Print
Server is receiving data. If nothing is actually print-
ing, check the printer settings. For example, if you
are using a PostScript printer, verify the Network
Print Server is also set to PostScript.
•
Try
pinging
the Network Print Server by its IP
address (not the hostname). This verifies that the
unit is functioning on the network.
•
If the
ping
succeeds, try
ftping
a test file to the print
server. If the ping fails, you might have a configura-
tion problem with the Network Print Server (the IP
address or gateway address might be incorrect,
etc.).
•
If the
ftp
succeeds, there is a problem with the
lpr/
lp
setup. Verify that the hostname or IP address is
correctly set for the queue. Try doing an
lpstat
(System V) or
lpq
(BSD) to query the status of the
Network Print Server.
