I have two printers and each printer is connected to deferent swatch Meraki MS120-48LP
And these printers are losing the connections from time to time
Both were working fine but now are not stable and the log i have the following
I checked the cables from the meraki dashboard and its all OK
I have other printers and all of them are ok but these two
Any suggestion ?
Port status change | port: 41, old: down, new: 100fdx |
Port STP change | Port 41 designated→disabled |

Can you share the port configuration?
Here we go
Try forcing them to 100 full duplex. We have some servers where the 1Gb cards sometimes need the port to be forced...
Will try that
looks well, have you tested it in another port?
All your other printers are the same model and running the same firmware ? As cmr suggested , try forcing the speed and duplex. This could also be a Eco feature kicking in
I'm going to bet it is an "eco" feature as @RaphaelL mentions. I bet you'll find the port changes are related to how long it has been since the printer was last used.
How can i check the eco feature ? is the printer setting ?
By the way this is kitchen recite printer in a restaurant (Epson TM-U220B)
Does this thermal Printer has a LAN port? Or does It connected to a PC?
It’s connected by Ethernet to the lan and they send orders to the printer
I forced the port to 100base-T but again the same problem is happening again
I've never seen a printer yet that lets you configure the eco Ethernet setting.
I think I have seen IEEE 802.3az settings on some models of Lexmark. I could be wrong , will have to check tomorrow
@RaphaelL, I have checked the datasheet and this Printer model does not support IEEE 802.3az. In my opinion, It can be a printer issue or the port issue.
Same iss
ue is still happening after forcing the port to be 100 100base-T and still getting same error
Any chance to test It on another switch?
I have two printers and each printer is connected to different switch as i have two switches
I am thinking to connect one printer to the Meraki MX directly and see
will let you know
