Basic Functioning

If you have trouble setting up your WGPS606, check the tips below.

The wireless USB print server has no power

Make sure the power cord is connected to the wireless USB print server.

Make sure the power adapter is connected to a functioning power outlet. If it is in a power
strip, make sure the power strip is turned on. If it is plugged directly into the wall, verify that it
is not a switched outlet.

Make sure you are using the correct NETGEAR power adapter supplied with your wireless
USB print server.

No lights are lit on the wireless USB print server

It takes a few seconds for the status light to be lit. Wait a minute and check the status light
on the wireless USB print server.

Printing Errors

The printer is printing “garbage” characters

It is possible that the printer does not match the printer driver in the operating system. Run the
Set Up This PC Wizard to correct this problem.

If two printers are connected to the WGPS606, the printer driver may have been incorrectly
selected. Run the Set Up This PC Wizard to verify that the correct driver is selected for the
printer your want to use.

Windows error message appears when printing

Consult Windows help.

Also, look at the status screen of the WGPS606 to see if the printer is listed as “idle” “printing”
“no paper” or “error.” Correct any problem indicated.
