    BH 1100 Slow Printing

    They have 2 machines. Only one is messing up. Does it with crossover from my laptop as well. It is slow to print and takes about 30 seconds to pull up the printer preferences. Web Interface is also inaccessible.
    Heres what Ive tried: NVRAM rewrite, FW Update(ver 90), Format Controller HDD and 3 different print drivers.

    Any ideas before I replace Controller Board?

      There arent initialization settings on an 1100 like there are on the office devices. I did the controller hdd format which wipes the network settings though.

          Before you replace anything, I would check to make sure that you LAN Interface speed is set to AUTO or whatever setting matches your network...which is most likely Gigabit.

            FIXED!
            Replaced Controller today with no luck. Tech Support was no help so I started searching KB Articles. Found one for the 8 series. It had me go into the driver and turn off auto obtain settings.(Bi-directional communication) This resolved my problem.

              Good find splblazer91! Really shows you the idea behind "better measure twice before cut"
              A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
              Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

                If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
                3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
                4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
                5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
