No network connection after hp laserjet m602 firmware update

After updating firmware on our hp laserjet M602 printers, the printers are no longer communicating with our print server. I can't even print configuration pages, if the Network cable is connected.  The update completed successfully and I can print using a USB connection.  The Event Log displays the following:
EVENT:           42.B0.01            Firmware:     23000331_377983                    
Description: Missing String ID: en-US: Please refer to the Jetdirect Admin Guide_Text
Additional Notes:
Before firmware update:                                            After firmware update:

Firmware Revision: 2131305_192069                     Firmware Revision:    2300331_377983
All Help will be greatly appreciated.... JP

Try to turn on device while network cable is disconnected (standalone) and let it completely boot till READY status.
Connect the network cable & note the front panel status (display & LED's both).  Also note if the LAN port LED's are ON.
Hope that there is no data being processed by printer (data LED on control panel).  If yes, then you might need to delete any pending jobs (including firmware download initiated from computer - if pending in que as a job)
If printer shows READY status without any data, then you may try printing printer internal documents using control panel menus.  Next step will be to access printer through web brower (EWS page) and confirm if the device is available for use in network.

  • FP1600 loses network connection after a few hours

    My FP1600 loses its network connection after a few hours. It is part number 185690C-01, with firmware 4.11. I am running FieldPoint Explorer version 3.0.1 and LabView 6.1 from Windows XP Professional. I set it up, and everything runs fine for 4 hours or more. I do not have the network watchdog enabled, and the FP1600 is in constant communication with the host computer in any case. Sometime in the middle of the night the communication is lost. The FP1600 link light
    is on, and it is still receiving packets, but it will not respond to a ping or any other communications. Only a power cycle brings it back. The FP1600 is sitting right next to the host computer, both attached to the same network switch. There is no interruptio
    n of network services to the two.

    Hi Heinz,
    We are also trying to troubleshoot this same problem (Intermitten network connection loss with FP1600 Ethernet Module - Error code "33163", Error Message - "FP1600 Connection to module has been lost."). We have checked other possible causes for this sort of behaviour. Including independent assessment of netowork availability at the time of error reporting, connecting dedicated power supply to the FP1600 module, temperature of cabinet housing the module (which is between 10 and 50 deg C), disconnecting sensors connected to various I/O modules connected to this module, increasing duration of parameter "time out" (the time module will wait before reporting an error if it can not access network). However, none of the above resolved the intermittent and random network loss errors.
    The MAX version is 3.0.2, and the firmware on the module is 4.17, Labview version is 7.0 and the Operating System is windows NT.
    I was wondering is there any information about this problem from any user or NI recently. The only solution looking in to this discussion forum seems to be replacing the module.

  • HP LaserJet 1518ni - Firmware update doesn't do anything

    Hello folks
    I am trying to update my HP LaserJet 1518ni to the latest Firmware (2013-11-08 , Version20130923, 4.22M).
    My current firmware datecode is: 20120110
    I went here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3422472
    Downloaded the file CP1510_Series_FW_Update-20130923.exe
    Turned Firewall and AntVirus OFF, ran the Executable with administrative priviliges - it says it found the printer and I see a progress bar and also the smiley at the end. But the printer is unimpressed and shows just "Ready" in the LCD, nothing changed: The files does simply nothing.
    Tried it via IP Port and also USB on another PC, same effect.
    What is going wrong?
    Where are the good old .RFU Files I just can TFTP to the printer...?
    Thanks,
    Thomas

    Hello @TomPe , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see you're experiencing firmware issues. I'd like to help!
    I would recommend performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I would then suggest downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    Once you have run the doctor, try installing the firmware via this tool:
    HP Color LaserJet Printer Firmware Update Utility
    Also, can you print standalone?  I would recommend pressing the right arrow until you see reports, press OK, select diagnostics page, and press OK.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.

    External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.
    I have the latest Airpor Time capsule 2gb. I specifically bought it so that I could have an external hardrive set up to wirelessly house my itunes library and movies. When i connect the drive, all i get is that the disk needs to be repaired.
    the drive can works fine when connected to the macbook pro and I have run the verify and repair features in disk utility. I have also reset the airport timecapsule as well following these changes and still no change.
    The 7.7.2 update says that it addressed the usb issue of not showing the drives but there are still problems as I cannot get it to appear.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    How is the hard drive formatted?
    Have you tried using a powered USB hub with the drive when it is connected to the Time Capsule?
    (The USB port on the Time Capsule is borderline as far as power is concerned....you may need to use a powered hub.....even if the hard drive has its own power supply)
    If the drive is formatted correctly....and....it has ample power, it will "show up" when you open AirPort Utility, click Edit, then click the Disks tab at the top of the next window.
    In the example below, my Time Capsule drive is named "Backups" and another drive named "WD Drive" is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
    You should see the name of your Time Capsule drive (named "Data" unless you have changed the name) and the name of the USB drive if you perform the same check.
    What do you see?

  • Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Hi there PompasJr,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Camera isn't functioning
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

  • HP Laserjet m602 firmware upgrade successful_network connection locks up printer

    Our laserjet m602dn control panel displayed that a firmware update was successful, but connecting the ethernet cable to the printer locks it up.  The update removed a blinking amber attention light (on control panel) that kept the printer from going into "Ready" mode.
    After the firmware update, the printer displays "Ready"; printing works through a local connection; pinging to the ip address fails. Can a firmware update be successful on a defective jetdirect/formatter board? If the board is defective, why does a local connection work?
    Are there any known issues with the following part: CE988-67906?
    Thank you.

    JP_VA,
    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .

  • Possible Solution to Apples not Being Able to Connect to WRT54G After 1.01.0 Firmware Update

    So like everyone else that has apples on their networks, ours did not work after the 1.01.0 firmware update.  However after a few hours and messing around, I finally got them to work with the router without having to downgrade to .9. 
    So far they still work thorugh a restart and a cold start, so I'm hoping that this fix will stick.
    To get this to work you need to have another open wireless connection that you can connect to and get online with.
    Steps:
    1) First open up safari or whatever you use... (obviously doesn't load otherwise you wouldn't be reading this)
    2) Connect to the open wireless network, and then hit refresh... (it should load up the page this time)
    3) Go back up and reconnect to your router.... now try your internet again using your connection.  It *should* work fine...  and you shouldn't have to do it ever again...
    Good luck, hope this helps

    HI  , just an addition to the above.....for MAC's go to system preferneces and then to network...choose you network card uner "connect using" and then under the TCP/IP tab select configure manually.....assign a static IP , subnet and gateway to the MAC along with the DNS entries....this static IP will work with the 1.01.0 firmware version .

  • MBP takes long time to restore wired network connection after wake-up

    Hello...
    My Mid-2010 MBP (MacBookPro6,2) has been experiencing this problem recently -- Whenever I wake up the computer from sleep, it needs approximately 10 seconds to restore its wired network connection. I know there are other annoying connection issues with MBP's WiFi/AirPort out there, but I'm talking about the wired connection here.
    Maybe some don't even think this slowness is a problem at all, but this laptop used to be network-ready right after wake-up until 3~4 months ago. That was around the time when I upgraded to SSD and changed some settings via pmset, not sure if that's the culprit. It is now running OS X 10.8.5 and its pmset settings are:
    Battery Power:

    Hi All,
    I've seen this problem multiple times, especially with Windows 7 64-bit versions and Enterprise edition.  The source of the problem appears to be the Bonjour service that is installed in the background and set to "Automatic" when installing certain 3rd
    party applications.  Apple applications like iTunes and Adobe applications like Acrobat Professional and Creative Suites have been known to cause this problem.  I've also seen virtualization software like VMWare and VirtualBox cause similar issues
    with network adapters.
    The solution in most of the cases I've come across has been to stop and disable the Bonjour service.  The Bonjour service also masquerades as a service with a name of the format "##Id_String1.6844F930_blahblahblah".  Here's how to disable this service
    in Windows 7:
    Right-Click on Computer > Select 'Manage'
    Expand the 'Services and Applications' section in the bottom of the Left-Nav dialog and Select 'Services'
    Sort the Services list by name and look for either "Bonjour" or the "##Id_String..." name mentioned above
    Right-Click on the service and select 'Properties'
    Click the 'Stop' button to stop the service
    Select 'Disabled' from the 'Startup type' drop down list
    Click 'Apply' and then 'OK'
    Reboot your machine and see if the "Multiple Networks" issue is resolved.  If so, you should have internet connectivity again.
    Hope this helps.
    cheers,
    Aaron

  • [SOLVED] Losing network connection after suspend

    Lately I'm having this peculiar problem.  When resuming after suspend (specifically, pm-suspend), I have no network connection.  I first noticed this on March 31st.  The only thing that changed was that I upgraded these packages:
    openssl-1.0.1-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    xf86-video-ati-6.14.4-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    lib32-libdrm-2.4.33-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    libnotify-0.7.5-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    xz-5.0.3-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    vim-taglist-45-5-any.pkg.tar.xz
    But I'm pretty sure I would have suspended and resumed successfully at least once after that upgrade.
    Can anyone suggest what I should look at to try to diagnose this?
    Thanks

    Same issue here. Looks like dhcpcd crashes during or after running /usr/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks on resume from suspend. I'll try downgrading until this is fixed.

  • Network connection after waking from sleep

    Hi... More or less any time I allow my MacBook Pro to go to sleep, when I wake it up I am nearly always disconnected from my Airport connection (I connect to a NetGear wireless router via my internal Airport card). I go up to the menu bar and click on the now grey airport icon and I do still see my network in the list of available networks. I click on it, after several seconds a message comes up that says "there was an error joining the Airport network "network name""... But I then simply click on OK (rather than Try Again, I've learned that by trial and error) and the network reconnects just fine... Then when I let the machine sleep again at some later time, I do that all again... Any suggestions of what might be going on??? I do have "Use Interference Robustness" turned on (not that I know why exactly) but I've also had it off before and that seems not to matter... Any suggestions??? thanks... bob..
    FW800 G4 dual 1.25 Ghz and 17 inch MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    I have "join preferred networks" selected, and mine os the only one on the list, and it still does not connect after waking from sleep. It is WEP security, not WPA2. I checked out the following article, but it was of no help:

  • 2008 r2 hyper-v guest with static IP always looses network connectivity after every restart - no problem with DHCP

    Hello,
    We are running 2008 R2 domain with one physical DC and other running in VM on Hyper-V host (2008 R2 Standard). The host has 4 NICs and is configured to use one physical NIC for itself (management) and the hyper-v guest is configured to use another dedicated/physical
    NIC (through microsoft virtual switch) just for itself.
    I noticed that after setting the hyper-v guest with a static IP address all works fine only until guest restart. When the guest boots up the IP address is still configured correctly in IPv4 properties, but there is no network connectivity at all and in fact
    the guest shows running APIPA config in ipconfig /all output. That situation continues until I remove the virtual NIC from hyper-v guest, remove the virtual switch from dedicated NIC on host and then reconfigure it (using same settings as they were). very
    annoying.
    For time being I switched the virtual DC (problematic hyper-v guest) to a DHCP IP and configured DHCP server (running on physical DC machine, not on hyper-v host) to store a reservation for the hyper-v guest so it always gets the same "static"
    IP configuration.
    Is there some kind of a problem/bug with using static IP on (2008 R2) hyper-v guests? is there a hotfix for static IP config in hyper-v guest environment?
    both 2008 R2 OSes (host and guest) are up to date with all updates (synced with Microsoft, not WSUS).

    OK, I'm not at the office now, but took my time to test out the restart scenarios on problematic virtual guest remotely.
    No dice, same as it was, everything works fine after guest has IP configured in DHCP mode (IP reservation of 192.168.1.5 for specific MAC address) and it doesn't work after restart in static IP mode (same address, works before restart of guest).
    I also took "arp -a" outputs at each step from host server and that was always saying there is only a single host (192.168.1.5 = VDC = problematic virtual guest) assigned to that IP address and always with same MAC, so that pretty much rules out
    ARP/MAC troubles and no issues with switches/routers getting spoofed. Problem is most likely with the virtual guest (WS2008R2) or within the host running same OS.
    Here are outputs:
    A) VDC has IP configured in DHCP mode - always same, survives through restart (all works)

    Throughout the testing, the hyper-v host IP configuration and IPconfig output was always staying same.
    The Network Connection #2 is the only one the host uses (not shared with hyper-v guests).
    The Network Connection #4 is assigned to Microsoft Virtual Switch hence why it doesn't show up in results, like below:

    On Monday I will install more test guests in Hyper-V host (WS2008R2), in variety of flavors like 7x64, 8.1x64, ws2012r2, and see if they show similar problems with static IP configuration when utilizing a dedicated NIC from host server.
    Don't get me wrong, I can live with virtual DC running on DHCP IP reservation (which is based on MAC), because the virtual DC pretty much requires a physical PDC (hosting also DHCP in my network) to be present for safety reasons ... however I prefer a static
    IP configuration on all servers, hence my question and surprise why it doesn't work.
