Is anyone sucessfully using the > HP4000N with FreeBSD ? we run HP4000TN printer and have never had any problems. how non-responsive does it become (Is it pingable? if so, can you telnet to the printer? do you have the syslog feature enabled? if yes are there any messages around the time it becomes non-responsive?). you may also want to do a tcpdump on the same network as the printer to see if there is any activity to the printer...some machines (such as those running Solaris printer routines) can obnoxiously grab a network printer. --mark.
