Postershop 10 + Roland SC-540 EX

Hello,

Yesterday, I did an overhaul on my SC-540 and I printed a small sample logo using Postershop 10. It printed fine, but I made a few tweaks to the bi-directional settings and did a bit more polishing up. Took me about an hour all told. I then tried to re-print the same sample and it didn't print at all. I'm at a loss as to what could have happened to make it so that it doesn't even print now. The printer shows it's first '% Complete' at 16%, then idles for 5-10 seconds, and then errors out on the print. The console gives me 'Print Data Error ... Print Aborted." Googling it shows that most likely it's my IP Address or the firewall, but I have the IP Address entered in correctly as it says that it is valid, and I have my firewalls on my computer turned off. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Appearantly, I'm an idiot and was using a dynamic IP address for my printer. So when I turned it off to clean it, someone's phone picked up that IP address. Hence why I couldn't print to that address anymore but could still ping it. The lesson here is to use static IP addresses only on a network.
