   Hello
   I recently purchased a Hewlett Packard Color LaserJet 2600n printer.
   It works perfectly under Windows XP but I cannot get it to work under
   FreeBSD 6.2.
   I have set it up as a network printer on a LAN and it has it's own
   permanent IP. I can ping the IP  but that is all I can do.
   Can this printer actually be made to work or am I wasting my (and
   your) time even trying?
   Thanks
   Bob Willson
