It is possible for the
Printer Name
field on the Configuration Page to be blank.
When the printer is turned on, it uses a default name and then checks to see that
no other printer on the network has the same name. If enough printers with the
same default name are present, it can take several minutes for the printer to
establish a unique name. If the
Printer Name
field on the Configuration Page is
blank, wait a short time and reprint the Configuration Page.
