When working with TCP/IP remember that iptrace is your friend. You need
to figure out where the conversation between port driver and the printer
is broken.

Try this:

- Temporarily move the tcpstart shadow out of the startup folder
- Reboot
- Start iptrace
- Run tcpstart
- Stop iptrace
- Run ipformat

This should give you some idea which parts are talking and which are not.
