I would reset the printer (in the menus) and configure the printer from scratch. You may have a setting that's preventing a pingback. Once an IP is set, go ahead and try to ping. If that is successful, set the hostname to something you want and try again. There could be many issues at play here. I would reset the printer (in the menus) and configure the printer from scratch.

Printer IP is 192.2.1.42. The problem is that all PCs are connected via IP not a hostname. I want to name all printers in the company so it is easier for users. Unfortunately I can not ping a printer using a hostname. I can ping it using IP Address. A have many onter printers which I can pring by hostname and IP fine. There is a problem with this one. I printed out configuration page from both printer which I can ping by hostname and printer which I can't. I can see similar configuration. I say similar as printers which I compare are different models of HP laserjet. Can you please help as I spend 2 hours at least and I can't find solution.

Make sure it's seated all the way and you see lights on the back next to the ethernet network cable port.

To reset, switch printer off then hold down the go button for a few second whilst it is powering on.Network cfg settings may have to be set to yes* in the printer meue if it still does not work. Once I did this it connected well and easy as described. Jp If the printer is second hand, reset the settings back to factory defaults otherwise it may not work.

Installed a used LJ5000 with these instructions last night. Figuring out how to reset the IP address was a challenge, but thanks to the comments, I managed that, too. Thank you soo much!
