can you test it on another pc - it may just be bad...
Can you ping the IP address?
The RJ45 jack on the back of those small Kyocera printers are usually loose, they don't make full contact with the pins on the patch cable that is plugged into it. I have had to install the optional NIC in the expansion slot in several to remedy this. You might just try to see if yours has room to wiggle and if so, try to push or prop the patch cable so it makes better contact with the pins in the NIC.

Have checked through Network and sharing and setup as senad had suggested. When I switch the printer on it calibrates and goes to Ready. On my switch the port it is connected to does show up Green. So have swapped cable for another. Plugged into another port on switch connected another device to the original printer port and the Green light comes on the switch.

EDIT: On my switch the port it is connected to does show up Green. It doesn't show up when printer is plugged in to switch and on.

On your Windows 7 Box, did you choose Public as the Network type?
If so, that is what is wrong, make sure to choose Private Home or Business to connect.
I saw you had your firewall down, but please check the Network Location Type.
