Next message: Daniel L. Schwartz: "RE: [WinMac] Epson 850NE"
I bought a brand new Stylus 900N for my company. We have Mac and PCs (guess
who has the Mac ;-) Anyway, it was replaced within the first week but the
replacement has the same problem. The E-net card is flaky as all heck. The
card hangs up for no apparent reason and you have to turn the printer off,
reseat the card (I am guessing to reset it), power the printer back up and
print a test page before it comes back on the network. If the printer is
working fine but you power it down for any reason, you still have to reseat
the E-net card or it will not work when you turn the power back on. Oh
well... the printing is superb anyway.
