What are the IP addresses of the other printers, and of the PCs. Are they all 192.168.0.* ? How did you give the printer its address - via the front panel or via DHCP?

Check that the link light for the printer on the network switch/router is on. If it's not, try a different port on the switch.router, or a different cable.

What subnet mask and gateway settings have you given the printer - make sure that they are in the same range as your servers.

I'm assuming that your servers have IP addressing in the 192.168.0.**  range?

The gateway IP address on the printer should be the IP address of your domain controller.

yes

i dont have AD or DNS on any of my servers.the netgear router i have set as the dhcp and it assigns clinet machines ip.but this canon printer i have given it a static ip 192.168.0.10.

>>Have you verified the port you are running through is live?  Are you getting LED lights on the printer >>where the network cable plugs in?

i connected my laptop to that cable which goes into the rj45 of the printer and it works.so there is no problem with the cable.correct??
