Hi,
Not a copy tech but an IT person who's installed many network printers and copiers.
We just bought a refurb Canon ir2220 from a used copy store. They're not being much help so I'm hoping to see if anyone has a suggestion.
I've tried installing this network copier on 3 different computers, using two different methods and I can't get it to print.
Method 1) Standard "add a printer"
Added it like any other printer. Added a new port pointing to it's IP address. When I try this method, it says the device cannot be contacted over the network and gives me a list of device network cards. I've tried to install it with the generic network card in the windows list. It will install, but not print and show as "needs troubleshooting". Troubleshooting reveals it cannot be contacted through the network.
Method 2) Newest Canon install software / driver
It won't find the printer automatically and when I add it manually, I get stopped at the same place after entering a new port with the ip address of the copier. It says "additional port information required, the device is not found on the network......"
I've diagnosed it as a network card issue but to my surprise it registered itself with our network and allows for the web admin access.
Below is the network information from the web admin page. Thoughts?
