On the Windows desktop, double-click My Network Places or Network
Neighborhood
.

Click the Entire Network link.

Click the Entire Contents link.

Double-click one of the network icons, and make sure that some devices are listed.

3. To verify that the network connection is active, perform the following steps:

Check the network light on the network (RJ-45) connector on the back of the printer.

If one of the lights is on solid, the printer is connected to the network.

If both network lights are off, check the cable connections from the printer to the
gateway, switch, or hub to ensure that the connections are secure.

If the connections are secure, turn off the power to the printer for at least
10 seconds, and then turn on the power to the printer.
