The printer is not communicating with the agent

Try one or more of the following:

Make sure that the printer is connected to the network
Make sure that the printer is not enrolled in another organization

Unenroll the printer from the organization, and then enroll it again in the organization where you want it to be managed.

Make sure that the Printer Agent is installed and running

Do either of the following:

  • If the Printer Agent is not installed, then enroll the printer using the Printer Enrollment Tool.
  • If the Printer Agent is stopped or disabled, restart or enable it in the Embedded Web Server.
Make sure that the printer network settings are updated
  1. Access the Embedded Web Server.

  2. Depending on your printer model, click Applications or Apps.

  3. Click Printer Configuration Agent > Test Agent Connection.

    • If the Test Agent Configuration button is missing, then enroll the printer again using the Printer Enrollment Tool.
    • If a Connection Failed! dialog with printer login error appears, then update the printer login credentials. Click Update Credentials, and then provide the printer administrator credentials.
    • If a Connection Failed! dialog with Internet connection error appears, then the printer network settings do not match the user network settings.
If a firewall is in place, then make sure that the Lexmark Cloud Services domains are allowed to use port 443
