How To Setup a Network Printer

I have a network printer server which connected a Canon PIXMA iP2200 linkjet. The printer works well under windows with http protocol. When I try to setup this printer under Arch, I installed CUPS, ghostscript and gsfonts via pacman and I installed iP2200 filter from aur. I managed to added the printer from the CUPS local web interface and printed a test page successfully, but I can't print any other documents, What's wrong with it?

Well I am trying to paste a piece of Error log here:

How to setup a network printer via http

I have a router with a USB printer attached to it. It looks like this:
Printer status: Ready
Printer location: http://192.168.2.1:1631/printers/My_Printer
In Windows you setup a network printer and the printers address is the http address above. How do you add this type of printer in the printer setup utility on Mac OSX 10.4.11 and 10.5.x?

For OS X 10.5, you use the following settings
As mentioned by bdaqua, open Print & Fax and click the IP icon and then select IPP from the top drop menu. Then in the Address field just enter the IP address; don't enter the leading 'http://' and don't enter the :631 (the mere fact that you have selected the IPP protocol means that it will communicate on port 631)
Then in the queue field you can enter printers/My_Printer, although some router perform a translation for the shared printer so you only need to enter the shared printer name in the queue field.
As for the name and location fields, these are just free text for the local user and have no bearing on the queue details.
And as for 10.4 I have no idea or way to test this at home. But if you use a mix of mine and bdaqua's information you should be okay.

How to setup a wireless printer

I was wandering if anyone out there knows how to setup a wireless printer without spending a lot of money. I have a dell photo 962 printer and a wrt54g router. I have tried to setup the printer on my laptop but it will not let me do so unless I connect it directly to the printer. My computers are running windows xp. Thanks for your help.

well for that you need to setup a printer as network printer, if your printer have networking capabilities...if not then you need to buy print server...

Can anyone tell me how to install a network printer driver without having the network printer online?

Can anyone tell me how to install a network printer driver without having the network printer online? It doesn't matter what manufactors make the network printers. Is a netwaork printer(with network card) has to have that printer on line to be able to install
the driver? This is the point of my question!
I've ask a same type of question previously, but I can't either get good answer nor reply on the response.

DP
The computer (and driver) have to handshake with the printer, QED it has to be either online or physically connected and if it is physically connected it wont work on the network so yes it does.

How to install a network print on solaris 10

How to install a network print on solaris 10?
Thank You!

Thank you Zettabyte!!
Folks, network printers should NOT BE configured like this:
lpadmin -p somequeue -s someprinter
that creates a remote style queue and puts all the I/O and processing capability on the basic LPD listener present on network printer interfaces. This will cause problems down the road, not to mention that you cannot control access, get any logging, filter content, or control banner pages.
Network printers should use any software (or PPD file) supplied by the vendor over the basic lpadmin/netstandard config.
You can install CUPS, but Oracle won't support it until it's part of the OS (S11, apparently).
The "System Administration Guide: Solaris Printing" is highly recommended for those administering printers on Solaris.

How to setup private network in oracle rac

Hi all,
Iam trying to setup oracle 2-NODE RAC ,
now i stuck in setup private network..
how to setup private network, what i have to do for that.
please help us provide step by step process

The loop is nothing but a network cable connecting two nodes on same port with a private IP address (something like 10.0.01 and 10.0.0.2) which is not accessible by any other machine in the network (except 2 nodes obviously ).
Note that cross over cables are not supported for the Cluster Interconnect. And cross over cables limit the cluster to only 2 nodes, which may not be enough for many RAC deployments.
Cheers,
Brian

How to setup a usb printer on the usb port of a network storage drive

I have searched the forums and dont see any real info on this..
I have a usb based officejet 7590 , winxp, and a iomega home media network storage drive
the printer works fine when I install it on the local usb port of the laptop
BUT
its not clear how to connect it ot the usb port of the network drive.
DO I have to resinstall it as a network printer?
DO I have to resinstall device drivers if I already installed it as a usb printer for the local port?
Can I use the scan/fax functions if I do it right?
thx!

OK, I will use it as a bookstand...
Since I obviously don't know enough about networks I will stay away from 'professional' products like the Cisco products.
The user interface and the documentation of these products are clearly made by nerds for nerds...
Thanks for your help.

How to setup wired network with G4, MBP and PC

Sorry to ask a bit of a stupid question here, but I've never had to network machines together so I'm starting from a knowledge level close to zero.
Situation. Old G4 (733) and new (intel) Mac Book Pro in one room. New PC (Dell) in another room with a wired router connected to internet. PC is also connected to a laserprinter. Hard wire ethernet cable running between the rooms to connect either the G4 or the MBP to the internet. Both the G4 and the MBP have only one ethernet connection. MBP is wireless, as is the PC. The G4 is not.
First off, I'd like to network the MBP and the G4. I believe ethernet is the best way to do this, but if I do that, how would I then connect to the internet? Would I just have a second router in the Mac room with the 2 Mac's hooked up to it and the other end going back to the router that's connected to the internet? I'd rather stay hard-wired than go wireless if at all possible. I do most of my internet work through the MBP, but some must be done through the G4, ie software updates, as the G4 has a lot more programs on it.
Second question, how would I then network to the PC in the other room? It would be nice to move files, photographs for instance, between the Macs and the PC. I'd also like to access the lazerprinter which is in that room, connected to the PC.
Hoping this is a simple question with a simple answer.
Thanks!

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
What you are describing is all possible, but, I am going to assign you some reading. This way, you'll be able to deal with your own particular needs, like a Pro.
The following will get you up to speed on networks, and various hardware needed:
http://www.atpm.com/network/setup/index.html
http://compnetworking.about.com/od/homenetworking/HomeNetworking_Setting_Up_a_HomeNetwork.htm
http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/network/
Adding the PC into the network has some special considerations. the following sites have good info for setting up such a network:
http://www.mac-connect.com/
http://www.apple.com/business/mac_pc/tutorials.html
For my needs, I have a switched ethernet network. All computers are connected to the switch, as is the modem, by ethernet cable. This allows computer to computer networking using AppleTalk. With the same cabling and switch, the computers are all able to connect to the internet using DHCP, or, one at a time using PPPoE.
These are all Mac's, but, with some setting adjustments, a PC can also be placed in a similar network.
As well, adding a wireless connection for one computer is possible. This would require a wireless base station to be connected to the switch. The wireless capable computer would then be able to enter the network, and vice-versa. Of course, the settings for all the hardware and software are the key. The settings can have variables, depending on what is connected, and how the connections are made. Another variable is your router/modem, and your internet service providers policies on multiple connections.
Adding the printer depends on the capabilities of the printer. Often, it is only possible to share a printer through a computer. A network capable printer can be connected to the switch, directly, or to a wireless base station, and then shared by all on the network.

How do I remove network printer references in Advanced Type?

Maybe somebody else can help me figure this out.
I installed Canon network printer drives, first "UFRII" Drivers, but then PS (which I believe is PostScript), those are the ones I actually needed for the network I am on.
The first one was a 98mb install, the second was only 21mb. I have a solid state drive and don't feel like wasting 100mb, so I tried to delete the drivers. Both were installed from .pkg files downloaded from the Canon website - they're legit and all. I found no uninstall option, and after some research, found out in fact none exists. WTH? But that's an aside.
I followed the various online directions and deleted the CANON folder in Library/Printers, as well as the stuff in /Resouces, and even the Color Profiles and LaunchAgents.
Yet, when I went to reinstall the printers with the new drivers, I still see the old "Types" listed in Settings > Print & Scan > Advanced (found the tab with the customize trick) and after it does a quick "searching...," I see them listed under "Type:"
If there are references to the printers then it is clear I did not catch everything, please let me know how to wipe these out.
I have time machine backups, short of doing a full restore (not even sure how), what are my options? I tried restoring just the Library/Printers folder, no luck on that alone.
Thanks!

The file(s) you are looking for are most likely in /usr/libexec/cups/backend/. Use extreme caution when removing files from that directdory. You could really mess up your entire system.
I would strongly urge you to contact Canon for a proper removal tool. Without a proper uninstaller, you almost certianly will not remove all that the installer left behind. A proper uninstaller will remove the files and the receipts for the installers that normally get placed in /private/var/db/receipts. Again, use extreme caution in messing with file in that directory unless you know what you are doing.

How i can define network printer to report that can use it

hi all
i want to define network printer to the report
and the format of the printer full name and its port ?
another question
when i use the local printer it print but there are web opened and contain uncertain
letters
i want this web to be closed

Hi John
Thanks for replying,
My current setup is this, my non apple router is accessed wirelessly by all my computers, ie imac, mac mini and macbook pro, ipad & iphones for internet.
My printer is in another room so therefore I cannot connect the AEBS (airport extreme base station) with an ethernet cable (I have intially in order to update the firmware and other updates) so in following the attached guidelines are you saying that I have to have the AEBS connected with the ethernet cable to the router?
I was hoping to wirelessly connect.
The wish is that all my devices can print wirelessly
What has happened though is that I can access the AEBS wirelessly, but it has disabled me from my router so I cannot connect to the internet neither to that network
Any other advice
Thanks
Regards

How to setup Guest Network Name in Cisco Router

Hello everyone!
The first. Sorry my english =)
I want tald you how to change guest network name in cisco (what have different name)
What we need.
1. Cisco Connect for Mac OSX (i use snow leopard and Cisco Connect for E3000)
2. Terminal
Okay. Let's go.
1. Install Cisco Connect for OSX
2. After setup - slighty setup your cisco router (give something name and password), then, when cisco connect say you "You now connected the internet" and going to main screen - exit from cisco connect
3. Open Terminal (Or you can use Finder (go to Application, show package content Cisco Connect))
4. Go to /Application/Cisco Connect.app/Contents/Resources/lcid/<your setup language, for english - go 1033>/
5. Edit resource_strings.pus (vi resource_strings.pus)
6. Change "-guest" in string <LocalizableString RcFileId='10019' BaseTextHash='0xA65E286D' BaseText='-guest'/> for something what you want. For example, i changed for ' Guest Network'
7. Save
8. Open Cisco Setup
9. Go to router configuration and change desired name. I changed to 'Grizlly Bear'
10. After setup name - go to Guest Setting and Enable. As you can si, your guest network name set as 'Grizlly Bear Guest Network'
11.Exit Cisco Setup
12. Go to web interface setup
13. Setup Wifi manual and change SSID for diferent names. I change 5Gh to 'Grizlly Bear Hi-Speed Network' and 2.4GHz to 'Grizlly Bear Main Network'
14. Setup your hostname for all services (fileserver, media server, etc)
Woala!
We have three diferent names network!
Questions?

In order to enable Guest networking, the AirPort Extreme must be configured as your "main" Internet router. In this configuration, Connection Sharing = Share a Public IP address. The Extreme would be connected directly to the Internet modem and NOT downstream of another router with NAT enabled.
In this configuration, the Guest network would provide access ONLY to the Internet and NOT to your LAN.

How to setup my network? Several Devices

Hello I'm trying to figure out the most efficient way to setup my network. I have both N enabled devices (mac pro, macbook, apple tv) as well as G only devices (PS3, vonage phone, dell computer). I want to use my airport extreme to work in N -only mode at 5GHz and my old Linksys WRT54G to work with the older G only devices.
What is the most efficient way of doing this?
Will I lose speed/range be setting the A.Extreme on b/g compatible mode at 2.4GHZ?
Can I connect my airport extreme to my cable modem and the linksys to one of the ports of the airport extreme?

Will I lose any speed by connecting my airport extreme in N mode to a slower wrt54g? Is there any difference if I do it the other way around (the wrt54g to the airport extreme?) Can I do that?
Since you would be connected them via Ethernet the wireless bandwidth of one won't affect the wireless bandwidth of the other.
Also if I use the mixed mode (b/g compatible 2.4Ghz mode, will I lose speed?
If any 802.11b/g clients use the network, yes the 802.11n clients will suffer.

How To Setup 2 Networks - One "N" & One "G"

Hi all and Happy New Year!
Basically, what I want to do is to setup 2 networks at home, one based purely on 802.11n & the other based on 802.11g.
I would probably name them as something like Home 'N' & Home 'G' in the new setup.
The reasoning behind this is that we have a number of devices, some of which are "N" capable and some of which are only "G" capable. From what I've read, if I set up the network to run in compatibility mode to allow the G clients access, the whole network slows to G speeds.
We have the following devices suffixed by what I understand are there wireless capabilities;
Imac - N (using ethernet currently)
MBP - N (wireless connection currently)
Windows Laptop x 2 - N (wireless connection currently)
XBOX 360 - N (wireless connection currently)
PS3 - ? (ethernet into AE currently)
PSP - G (I believe this is WEP only but am open to correction)
DSi X 2 - G (WEP only for Nintendo WFC connections)
Iphones - G
So what I want to do is to have the N devices connecting to the N network, and the G devices connecting to the G network, thereby allowing both networks to run at their full speeds.
In terms of equipment, I have a 500gb Time Capsule (not the new dual band version), an Airport Express (bought last year brand new), and I also have my old Netgear DG834N modem/router which can be brought out of retirement if needed.
I'm also considering purchasing another AE to use for AirTunes/network extension when I'm exercising out the back in another room. (Probably not relevant, but may require additional setup help).
Currently, the Imac is ethernet wired to the TC which is ethernet wired to an X-MODEM M3 for our internet connection. The TC is set to 802.11n in compatibility mode with b/g, and is used to backup my mbp/imac, which I'd like to keep it doing.
The AE is in the living room with the PS3 ethernet wired into it and an sp/dif optical out to the Denon Amp for AirTunes.
The AE is set to extend the existing wireless network.
Now, it may not be possible to do what I want to do with my current equipment, and if that's the case, then any suggestions as to additional requirements along with idiot-proof walkthroughs will be much appreciated!
However, if what I want to do is possible by re-jigging my current setup, then again, any and all help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Rick

With the powerline adapters, you would plug one adapter into an AC wall socket near the Time Capsule and connect a short ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the TC to the ethernet adapter.
Plug another powerline adapter into an AC socket near the location where you want the Airport Express (AX) and connect the AX to the ethernet adapter with a short ethernet cable.
If you go with the AX in the same room as the TC, you'll connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the TC to the AX.
The AX would be configured the same in either type of setup.
Configure the AX as follows using AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
Wireless Mode = Create a wireless network
Wireless Network Name = Your choice
Check mark next to Allow this network to be extended
Radio Mode = 802.11b/g compatible. You may need to hold down the option key on your Mac when you click on the selection box to see this choice
Security = Same as your TC is using
Password = Your choice
Confirm Password
Click the Internet icon
Connect Using = Ethernet
Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
Update to save settings and restart both the TC and the AX
If you want the TC to do "n" only, open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab
Change the Radio Mode to 802.11n only (2.4 GHz)
Update to save settings
