Hi
Thanks in advance for any replies.
I am trying to set up a freebsd 7.2 p3 system to be able to print from
an hp laserjet 2200dn equipped with a built in 10/100 jetdirect 610N. The
printer is also used by a number of MS$ systems on the same subnet as the
server so I know the printer is working and configured to print both text and
graphics and to use the double sided facility. I need to use similar
facilities from the server.
On the windows XP systems the printer is identified by a port entry in the
form "[my_device].[my_domain].[my_tld]:HP LaserJet 2200" in the printer
properties. The HP JetDirect Configuration report includes the following info:
Model Number: J4169A
Firmware Version: L.20.24
Under TCP/IP we have:
Hostname: [mydevice]
Domain Name: [my_domain].[my_tld]
# The following all show correct entries:
Ip Address:
Subnet Mask:
Default Gateway:
DNS Server:
Despite reading the documentation I seem to be having difficulty setting up
the printer from the server. So far I have not been able to get the beast to
print-- I have scrapped all attempts at configuring the server and would
appreciate some guidance before I trying again!!
Thanks
David
