Hello Prigge, Jim
The printer is at 100Mb / s FULL with autonegotiation disabled, the
desktop was as 1Gb / s FULL with autonegotiation enabled.
The swicth A (100Mb / s) and B (1Gb / s) are connected directly to each other.
Now connect the Desktop Printer and a switch C (only two), then swich
C connects directly to swicth A.
I'm sniffer on the Desktop to see differences and discard things. I
tell them when finished.
Thank you for writing so far.
(Examples of how to find a fault will serve me now or the next)
Are your statements above accurate (printer has autonegotiation
*DISABLED* and desktop has autonegotiation *ENABLED*)? Both devices
*MUST* match, even if one has autonegotiation enabled. i.e., If the
desktop has autonegotiation enabled, then the printer *MUST ALSO* have
autonegotiation enabled. Otherwise autonegotiation will fail and the
device with autonegotiation enabled will drop down to half duplex. See
this:

Hansang Bae mentioned this in a session at a prior Sharkfest during one
of his very illuminating "Deep Dive" packet analysis sessions.
