XC540 Disconnecting from VersaWorks mid print.

[netsol]

Sorry for the delay. Bad flu/cold going around right now. I think it may be the main board. Connected directly from laptop to printer. PC 010.164.112.150 and Printer 010.164.112.250. opened VW and it connected. Hit print and it stopped after about two minutes. Shut everything down and tried again and the same thing.

those are routable protocols

you NEED to do one of the 4 sets of ip ranges that windows doesn't steer you out of your local network to the internet

set both devices to something in

192.168.1.xxx range

IE:

192.168.1.30 ip of pc
255.255.255.0 subnet
192.1681.1 gateway

192.168.1.40 ip of printer
255.255.255.0 subnet
192.168.1.1 gateway

if a single wire from pc to printer
or
2 wires with a switch (NOT A ROUTER!)
you can leave gateway blank

set ip's on both devices, power printer off, then back on

do the same for the pc
then
START>SETTINGS (THE GEAR)
NETWORK & INTERNET>ADVANCED NETWORK SETTINGS>ADVANCED SHARING SETTINGS>ENABLE NETWORK DISCOVERY & FILE AND PRINT SHARING

SET IP OF PRINTER IN SETUP on your rip

how would i go about getting the mainboard fixed or changed?

Do it as written in the service manual. You will need the Peck software to retrieve the parameters from the old board and write it in the new one. (or do all the necessary adjustments manually)

Note you can't get new genuine boards anymore. Digiprint have some they say are genuine, but pretty sure they are Chinese copies and around $1500
