Next day it started working again even though the NIC light was flashing yellow. &nbsp;So at least the printer is working but the reason for the yellow light is unclear. &nbsp;Maybe it means the NIC is receiving at 10M rather than 100M but even if that is the reason I don't know why it would be doing that. &nbsp;Thanks for answering my question.

My Konica Minolta 2430DL network printer has dropped off my LAN. &nbsp;The ethernet connection is flashing yellow (though it flashes green at the ethernet switch end). &nbsp;Self-test printout seems normal but I can't ping it or print to it. &nbsp;What would cause that problem? &nbsp;I have cold rebooted it a few times without success.

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
