IBM printer question [7:13992]
Question for all you IBM printer gurus. I have the following small office connected to my hospital. HOSPITAL-AIRONET340OFFICE-AIRONET340---C1924IBM AFP Printer. Here is the problem. After about 15-30 minutes the printer is no longer visible or pingable from the network. It seems to time out from the switch connection. If I log into the switch and ping this printer it comes back up and is then visible on the network again, until it times out? Any known conflicts with the C1900's or the Aironets and this particular printer? Anyone know of any timeout parameter changes that might take care of this? There isn't a whole lot of commands on the 1900 to use. Bob Sites System Engineer Valley Health System, IS Dept.

You might want to check is the port is going into "errordisable" mode. Usually when this happens, the switch is either set to or detecting full-duplex, when in fact the printer is only working in half-duplex. That could explain the reset when you log into the switch. I have seen this A LOT with HP printers and Catalyst switches.

RE: IBM printer question [7:13992]
This is related to the printer MAC address aged out of the CAM table due to inactivity. We see a lot on our servers. What we do is creating a ping script (traffic) on the servers to ping the gateway. In your case, you can do a continuous ping to the printer IP from a workstation or server, say ping it very 3 minute or so.
