I'm having a problem with a Dell 1700n laser printer. I came into work this morning, and no one was able to print to this printer. The settings of the printer at that time were as follows:

 

Status: Not Connected

 

Active: Yes

Enable DHCP: Yes

AutoIP: Yes

Address Source: DHCP

IP Address (example): 10.10.10.10

Netmask (example): 20.20.20.20

Gateway (example): 30.30.30.30

WINS Status: Unregistered

WINS Server (example): 40.40.40.40

DHCP Server: 0.0.0.0

 

I searched on these forums for a similar problem, and then I re-set the printer using the procedure I found on here - Turn off printer, open front door, press "Continue" and "Cancel" buttons simultaneously, turn printer back on, wait for error light to light up, close front door, turn off printer and then turn it back on. I re-printed the setting sheet, and here's what came up:

 

Status: Not Connected

 

Active: Yes

Enable DHCP: Yes

AutoIP: Yes

Address Source: Manual

IP Address: 0.0.0.0

Netmask (example): 10.10.10.10

Gateway: 0.0.0.0

WINS Status: Unregistered

WINS Server: 0.0.0.0

 

It no longer displays the DHCP server address, which was set to 0.0.0.0 before. The threads I looked at before all said that the printer would automatically set itself once it was re-set, but this hasn't happened. What's going on, and what do I have to do to fix it?

 

Also, I do NOT have the installation disc for this printer.
