Troubleshooting the PSII

PrintServer II User and Reference Guide

• If the LED is solid red for more than 30 seconds, the

PSII

has failed the POST. If

the failure is not severe, the

PSII

attempts to print a configuration label on the

printer. A failed POST can be caused by any of the following:

• The printer attached to the

PSII

device is malfunctioning. Turn the printer

power off, wait 10 seconds, then turn the printer back on.

• If the

PSII

still fails the POST, continue below. The

PSII

has a hardware

problem that can only be fixed by replacing or returning the unit. Contact
Technical Support for repair or replacement information.

• If the LED is alternately flashing red and green for longer than two minutes, the

PSII

is in firmware-download mode. This means it is waiting for new firmware

data to be sent before it continues normal functioning. Perform the following:

• If the

PSII

was purposely put into firmware-download mode, finish the

download with the proper update utility. Contact the Zebra web site at

http://

www.zebra.com

to download this utility.

• Contact Technical Support for help recovering this unit.

ZebraNet View Utility Discovery or Configuration Problems

If you are having problems using the ZebraNet View utility to discover or configure
the unit, check the following:

• Verify there is not a router between the workstation running ZebraNet View and

the

PSII

. Since the

PSII

does not have an IP address, TCP/IP communication can

not be started across a router. Run ZebraNet View on the same subnet as the

PSII

.

This is not a limitation when using ZebraNet View for HP JetAdmin in IPX/SPX
Discovery Mode.

• Verify the

PSII

has a solid green light. If the LED shows a rapidly flashing green

light, check the network cable that is attached.

Unable to Print

• If you are having problems printing, verify that there is communication between

the

PSII

and the printer, check the following:

• Print a configuration label by pressing the test button on the

PSII

. If a

configuration label does not print, verify the printer has media and ribbon (if
used) and is not paused.

• If problems persist, contact Technical Support.
