I really do not mind which facility to use provided I get the results!!! . I do need to use as many of the printer features as possible. I have enable the following: IPP Printing : Enabled FTP Printing : Enabled LPD Printing : Enabled 9100 Printing : Enabled SLP Config : Enabled EWS Config : Enabled So I should be able to use a similar approach to you. Is the script readily available and what do I need to do to install and configure it? Thanks again David David
