Hi John. I got it to work and all is fine. Interesting situation.... the R2400 has a usb connection as well as a firewire connection on the back and for quite some time, I've been successfully printing through the firewire. That's why I wondered why the computer didn't recognize the printer was online... for some reason, the firewire connection wasn't working. I hooked up the standard usb and the printer came online. Then I successfully used the WIC and key to reset and it took off!! Thanks for your assistance.
Also, I'm having trouble getting my keys (3) from order 32306 that I placed today. The link said it was sending an email but I've not received one. I did successfully download the R2880 SM, however. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
