in the end the problem was additional ram. took ram stick out and
printer now running fine
the fault lights for RAM are the same as "no network connection" and
"looking for DHCP server".
obviously the printer was only accessing the additional memory some
minutes after starting up as the printer would start, print
diagnostics pages and allow a page or two to print (from USB or zero
config) then die :(
