(continued).
Printer is not on the same network. Telnet into the printer from a workstation on
the same network. Set route to workstation
with either of the following commands:
For a specific workstation:
change route ip
workstation_ip_address
where
workstation_ip_address
is the IP
address of the workstation.
For a default router:
Define node

gateway_ip_address
gateway default
where

the gateway.
Unable to reach the XNIC
from your TCP/IP host.
There is a router between the UNIX
host and the printer being
installed, and the router is
unaware of the printers IP address.
Modify the XNIC IP address by connecting to
the XNIC through another XNIC server using
the Connect RCF command.
arp
command not
successful.
Host Name incorrect.
Printer not on same physical and
logical net as server.
Check TCP/IP configuration.
Move printer to the same physical or logical
net as the File Server. Follow the XNIC
documentation on how to change the IP
address manually and set routing.
XNIC already has an IP address.
Set IP address of XNIC back to NONE or
reset the XNIC to its factory defaults to
return the IP address to None. Refer to
Resetting the XNIC to the Factory Defaults
(page 11-7).
