Printing to a wireless printer

Postby dutchman976 » Tue Apr 10, 2012 5:10 pm

Hello Everyone

I am trying to set up printing to an hp laserjet printer hooked up to my wireless modem/router. How do I set this up in Ultimate 3.2? In windows you would go to add printers and choose local, then add a tcp/icp port and enter the ip address. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I too have a wireless printer. In my case I have to install or at least I think I have to install the deb a Epson NX330 got the deb from epsons website.

I suggest a browse her to see if your printer is detected:
http://localhost:631

click adding printers and classes then click add printer, this will also scan the network for your printer.

Wow. Thanks guys. That was interesting. Using the cups was very easy. A lot different than using windows. Thats what I get for thinking "inside the box." Thanks for your help. :D

By the way one glitch I have noticed is I tried to change the default operating system using the gui startup manager and it would not work. It remained the same no mater what I did. I actually had to edit the boot file to change the default. Just something to look at. Thanks.
