Troubleshooting the HP Jetdirect Print Server 201
Unable to Use the HP Jetdirect Wireless Setup
Wizard
The HP Jetdirect Wireless Setup Wizard (Windows) is used to
configure the HP Jetdirect wireless print server with wireless
network connection settings to access your network.
If you are unable to use this wizard, refer to other options described
in the
HP Jetdirect Administrator’s Guide
for this print server
model, supplied on the HP Jetdirect CD-ROM. Other tools available
include:
●
the embedded Web server (see
Chapter 4
and
Appendix B
)
●
Telnet (see
Chapter 3
)
●
printer’s control panel for selected printers (see
Appendix C
)
Note
The configurable parameters available through
these optional tools may be limited.
Improving Reception and Performance
Wireless LAN radio signals can penetrate many indoor structures
and can reflect around obstacles. However, wireless communication
range and performance depends on a variety of factors, including
the number of users, the quality and physical placement of the
wireless hardware, and the sources of radio signal interference (for
example, microwave ovens and cordless telephones use similar
frequencies that may interfere with wireless LAN signals). In
general, the HP Jetdirect wireless print server’s data transfer rates
will decrease with increasing distance, obstructions and
interference.
Symptoms
●
Wireless status LED is yellow.
●
The signal strength (see the HP Jetdirect configuration page or
embedded Web server) is poor or marginal.
●
Print jobs are excessively slow.
