Hi guys/gals
I need your expertise/ advice on what mat be a stupid question.
A customer of mine just moved their machine MP C2500 and called me in to re-connect it. I discovered that they damaged the TCP/IP port insides and I can't get a connection. I tried for about an hour to straighten out the 'prongs' (or whatever they're called) inside it with no luck.
I'm pretty decent at connecting stuff and setting up small Workgroups, etc., but honestly, my comprehension of how all the data is transmitted is really quite a mystery to me. That's the REAL IT people's jobs
So here's my question: Can I use the USB port with one of these print servers below (or similar) and simply configure it as I would normally? I'm not concerned about printing issues, it's the SMB scanning that I'm having doubts about.
My gut tells me it's a no-go, but I'd appreciate any feedback.
If not, I guess it's new Controller time for them . That puts the cost up!
