Hi guys,

I was wondering how to set up my printer which is on out network at work with my MBP.

The printer's IP is 192.168.5.19 and server's firewall has the port 9100 allocated to the printer. In a Windows based PC you add the printer as a local printer with the port 192.168.5.19:9100 and it prints perfectly.

However I have no idea how to add this printer in SL. I tried HP Jetdirect, IPP, LPD protocols with the IP and IP:9100 configs and nothing works.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I did this just fine but can't remember what I did. I think it just showed up under the "Default" section but we may have a different set of protocols enabled for discovery on ours.
