Hello everyone, I call this e-mail "Network Printing" because that, along with many other strings I've been googling for the past two days. This is the situation, I've got an HP PSC2510 and I've gotten everything working (copier, fax, scanner) except for the printing. I've got this printer connected to my network switch via it's NIC and it's pulling an IP address, I did a brief nmap to see where it listens and here is the output: -- Interesting ports on hpprinter (10.0.0.19): (The 1657 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) PORT STATE SERVICE 21/tcp open ftp 80/tcp open http 139/tcp open netbios-ssn 280/tcp open http-mgmt 443/tcp open https 9100/tcp open jetdirect MAC Address: 00:01:E6:94:5D:5D (Hewlett-Packard Company) Device type: printer Running: HP embedded OS details: HP printer w/JetDirect card Uptime 0.010 days (since Sat Jan 22 11:04:39 2005) -- I have never setup a printer in my bsd days, thus I'm inquiring here. Does anyone have any clues, links to how-tos, a cousin's phone number that knows how to do this? I also tried to install and configure cups and lpd to no avail. One thing that did give me hope was this command: echo "Test" | nc hpprinter 9100 which returned a printed page with "Test" on it (without the quotes).
