The print server can work in only Ethernet or wireless LAN mode, but it can’t work in both at the same time. When the print server starts up, it will autodetect if the

LAN port is connected to an active network by an Ethernet cable.

If the print server is connected to an active network by an Ethernet cable when starting up, the print server will run in Ethernet mode. If the print server is not connected to an active network by Ethernet cable when starting up, the print server will run in wireless LAN mode. The print server default is in Auto mode.
