[QUOTE="erie910, post: 200550, member: 3913"] [b]Network Printing[/b] I assume that the printer is connected via Ethernet cable. When you reset the router, the printer probably got a new IP address from the router, and there is no port on the computer for this IP address. Sometimes reinstalling the printer driver will help. Another option is to check the owners' manual to see how to determine the IP address of the printer. If you can find that, you can go to the printer in Printers or Devices and Printers (Windows 7) from the START menu, right-click the printer, and go to Properties or Printer Properties (Windows 7). Click on the Ports tab and see where the printer is connected. If connected to a TCP/IP port, check the port IP address against what you determined the IP address of the printer to be. If they differ, set up a new TCP/IP port using the printer's IP address, and that should work. If the printer allows you to set up a static IP address, consider doing it. Most routers start DHCP IP address assignments at 100 through 200. So, if your router has an access address of 192.168.1.1, for example, it is likely that you can select IP addresses of 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.99 for static assignment. If you select an IP address ending in 100 or above, the router might try to assign that address to computers or other devices. I set up all computers in my home workgroup (a total of 4) with static IP addresses. Some routers take time to assign addresses, and a static IP address takes time. If you swap out routers, be sure to change the computer IP addresses back to dynamic (DHCP) until the new router is installed. [/QUOTE]
