Network print server compatibility

I'm contemplating the purchase of a network storage device (LaCie d2) which has a built in print server for a USB attached printer. I'd like to find out if this function will be compatible with my Samsung ML-1640 laser printer. The available specs indicate that the print server requires a postscript capable printer but I can't find any convincing evidence about whether the ML-1640 is compatible or not. Has anybody tried this?

Thanks...That was my initial assumption when I looked at the Samasung support site. HOWEVER, there is a small ray of hope. The LaCie tech spec says that the device is compatible with printers on the Openprinting compatibility list. There is a user contributed entry in this list claiming that the ML-1640 works with Linux.
http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Samsung/Samsung-ML-1640
Hence my search for anybody who's tried it.

Printing via Network Printer Server not working

I have three Macs on a local Network, PowerBook Pro, Mac Pro and Mac Mini. Printing facilites are provided by an Epson printer connected to a Networked Print Server, both the PowerBook Pro and the Mac Pro print without any issues, However when i try to print from the MacMini i always get a communications error. I have another location where i have a similar set up and i get the same error at that location.
The Print Servers and Mac's are connected to the network via Wireless, if i try to use Ethernet i get the same issues.
Any ideas?
Thanks

The Mini runs on Lion (10.7) and Lion want to have all network participants in the same local domain since Airdrop.
Check that the printserver uses local as domain in the network settings instead of (as often preset) workgroup

CP1217 vs. Network Print Server

Hi,
I'm trying (and failing) to get my CP1217 (colour lasjet) working with my network print server (Netgear WGPS606).
The CP1217 works fine connected directly (USB) to the computer, and the WGPS606 works fine (otherwise I wouldn't be typing this - and it worked fine with my previous (HP) printer).
When the CP1217 is hooked up to the WGPS606 (and after the printer/software setup is done so that the printer is setup on the IP printer port), the HP print monitor (prnstatusmx.exe) reports that it isn't connected, and nothing prints. The WGPS606 status/diagnostics however report that it is connected (although it is clearly true that the printer is no longer locally connected.)
I have three questions - all help appreciated:
Has anyone got the CP1217 (or a printer from the same series) working with a WGPS606? (If so, how?)
Is the CP1217 compatible with a network print server (apart from the HP wireless kit thing which wouldn't do what I need)?
Does the print monitor (prnstatusmx.exe) only "see" locally connected printers, regardless of what port settings are set for the printer?
Thanks in advance...

I've been using a CP1217 with a Sitecom LN308 print server (which is cabled to my switch) since late March and it's fine, so the answer to your question whether it works with anything other than the HP print server is a resounding 'Yes'. Initially I just installed drivers as I was in the middle of an Open University assignment and wanted to print a.s.a.p (my poor old DJ840C was struggling). Today I decided to install the Toolbox so I can monitor the toner levels etc, as I'm about to start another block in my OU course and have lots of course text to print. That's where the problem started as the Toolbox is seeing the printer via the Sitecom but there's a big cross beside it and I can't access the status monitors etc. I've posted this as I'm hoping someone can tellme if/how this can be made to work.
You don't say if your print server is wired or wireless - if the latter, might this be an issue?
You said you've installed it using IP (I take it you've used a local TCP/IP port with the print server IP no?) - have you tried installing it as a local crown port using \\<print server name>\Printer name? Might be worth a go.
Good luck.

Router Print Server Compatibility

I'm looking for a router that costs less than the Airport Express. I'm looking for a router that has a USB Print function that is compatible with OSX 10.8.5
I was looking at the AirStation™ HighPower N600 Gigabit, but their user manual only covers to 10.7 so I called them and they couldn't give me a good answer other than that many routers have been having print server problems with 10.8 of Mac. Anyone have a Router w/ USB Print capability that works with OSX 10.8.5?

Usualy, anything working with 10.7 works with 10.8.
The reason the Airport Extreme/express work so conveniently is because there is proprietary software embedded that makes the USB port an extension of your Mac's USB. This is valuable for non-postscript, USB-only printers (mostly inkjets fit this description). When I say USB-only, I mean that, except for Brother, all the manufacturers have decided to give us USB-only drivers.
For any brand of router to give you that, it will need software that traps USB output and sends it to the router/printer.
Depending on your printer, we may have alternate drivers that can work with "standard" network printing protocols. What printer is it?

Riddle: Printing from iMAC to printer on networked print server

Here is a Doozy:
I am having trouble printing from my new Intel iMac over a wireless network, through an attached print server.
Here is the layout & issue:
Configuration:
I have a Windows XP PC & iMac in my office.
I have a wireless network connecting the 2.
On this network & have attached the SimpleShare 250GB network HDD, with print server
I have a Canon Pixma 800 attached via USB to the SimpleShare print server.
Issue:
The iMAC cannot print out of the printer.
The iMAC searches, finds & installs the printer (name: MP800, puts it in WORKGROUP, with queue of MP800)
It sends the job & says the job is done (looking good!).
I hear the HDD fire up (a couple clicks). But nothing prints out & the printer does not recognize a job was sent to it. (ARGHH!)
I have:
upgraded to the latest firmware on SimpleShare.
The windows PC prints fine to the printer, through this same configuration.
The iMAC prints fine to the printer when connected directly.
The iMAC reads/writes fine to the HDD itself through the network.
The internet connection works fine through this configuration.
The ONLY issue is getting a print job from the iMAC to the printer.
ANY & ALL help is appreciated, its driving me crazy...

I suspect it may be a driver issue.
It may work with the PrintFab Drivers (but these cost).

Wireless Print Server compatibility for HP LaserJet P1005

I recently purchased a HP LaserJet P1005 for home use and was considering putting in a wireless print server at home for that printer and another that I have. Does anyone know what wireless print servers are compatible with this printer? I can't find a lot of information on print servers online and I'm having trouble with finding what would be compatible. Any help would be appreciated....thanks!

Help needed to setup to Network Print Server

Hi,
I am trying to configure the following to print from my Mac:
D-Link DP-301U USB print server
HP Color LaserJet 3500
MacBook Core Duo OS X 10.4.8
Very little information is available on both D-Link and HP website.
The D-Link installation guide says to install via AppleTalk.
AppleTalk has been activated on my AirPort as well as on the Web configuration of Print Server. However I cannot see any printer on adding a printer.
In the Add Printer Browser, I can see my print server on Bonjour. When selected, I am supposed to choose my HP printer, but it is no on the HP printer list.
Only Generic PostScript can be selected, however when printing, it prints our garbage.

A long time ago, I worked on a print spooler and was lent a JetDirect
box from HP to test with. A JetDirect card is in your LaserJet, I believe.
(One of the protocols it supported was localtalk, BTW). I think the
d-link isn't forwarding your localtalk packets. Anyway, one of the
things I remember is that the JetDirect spoke PCL, so that's another
consideration a driver has to deal with. The garbage you're seeing
is raw postscript. It needs to be rasterized and translated to PCL.
Please bear with me, my experience is very old, and there are gaps
in my knowledge. But I think this is do-able. I think the first step is
to add the printer directly by clicking here,
The location of the printer should be the address of the print server
(or canonical name if you're ever going to change addresses). The
device should be appsocket/jetdirect. The device uri should be
socket://nameoripaddressofdevice. The make should be HP and
the model/driver should be one of the Laserjet series, gimp-print.
I don't know which one, my experience ended around Laserjet 5, and
so do the drivers! But fundamentally they have to do the same thing.
They use the gimp-print package to rasterize the postscript and
encapsulate it into PCL. So I would bet the LaserJet 6 driver will work.
I'm sure everything posted here is correct, and that my experience
is too old and I don't know enough to know why this won't work,
but it's not a lot of effort, and if I were you I'd give it a try.

Wireless Print Server Compatibility

I have a Netgear WGPS606 wireless print server and I was wondering if anyone knows if I can connect to it with OS X. Netgears site didn't say anything about it. Anyone know?

I had the same problem with my Netgear Print Server and there is no help directly on the Netgear website. However, a search on Google revealed the following link from one of the Netgear forums:
http://kbserver.netgear.com/kbwebfiles/N101570.asp
After following all the instructions I still wasn't able to get it to work until I did the following:
1. I use Netgear's WNR854T wireless router (RangeMax) and it doesn't seem to recognize the default IP (192.168.0.102) of the Print Server (PS). In my case, I had to change the PS's IP address so that it fell within the range set on my router; in my case it was 192.168.1.102.
2. Next you need to set the new IP address for the PS as a static address in your wireless router. Do not rely on the router's DHCP settings (if you have your router set-up this way) to properly route the printing information.
Check to make sure your Mac can now ping the PS with its new IP address. The terminal screen will show the PS continually being pinged, so once it successfully transmits its few bytes of data you can close the terminal.
3. Now follow the directions as stated in Netgear's document noting the change in the PS's new IP address. Make sure you don't input the IP address stated in the document as it was your old default address.
You should now be able to print documents.

Can't connect to a networked printer - Airlink101 USB Print Server

I am new to Mac. I am trying to connect my iMac to a Brother HL-5040 laser printer through an Airlink101 USB print server over my wireless network. The iMac connected to the 802.11g network immediately without any issues which is more than I can say for the other XP machines I own. I have several other Windows PC's networked and they all print just fine. Using the print setup utility, I can find the networked print server and add it to the printer list; however, I can not print. The status monitor indicates that it can't connect. The install directions on the Airlink101 website for the Mac does not seem to match the options that are part of the "add a printer" utilility. Any help would be appreciated.

When we try to add another one of the printers it finds the printer with the IP, it auto-detected the driver, then when I click next, I get an error stating there was an "error connecting to the printer would you continue anyway?"
We try to print but the queue just continuously pauses and nothing gets sent to the printer.
This could be a result of the protocol you selected. IPP is the default listed. If you remove this printer and add again, but this time change the protocol drop menu to HP Jetdirect-Socket, see if this works better for the user.

P1006 and Wireless Network Printing

I have a P1006 connected to an Apple Airport Express on a home network. The Airport Express has a static IP, and the router is configured so that it also knows that the Airport Express has a static IP. I have a similar configuration with a second printer (Epson) that works reliably. However, print jobs sent to the P1006 vanish. I have used this arrangement in part to keep down the cost of replacement printers in the future (since they need not be purchased with built-in network connectivity.) I had some earlier connectivity to the P1006 earlier by using Windows Bonjour, but because of a wish to also be able to print to this printer from a Windows Mobile 6.1 Pocket PC using Jetcet (the PPC does not have Bonjour) tried going to direct IP printing.
This has not worked.
I have considered replacing the Airport Express because I know that HP printers have traditionally had an issue with being able to print from wireless print servers (given the additional cost and reliability this always seemed odd to me) and thought that perhaps using an HP print server might solve the issue. Although this slightly undercuts my goals, if it would consistently work with HP printers perhaps it would make sense. I looked at the HP 2101nw Wireless G Print Server, compatibility with the P1006 looks questionable. However, a post in this forum on December 19, 2008 in a thread called Re: Wireless Print Server compatibility for HP LaserJet P1005 seems to be a cut and past of other info from the HP site and lists the P1006 as compatible.
Can someone clarify this?
If the HP2101nw and the P1006 are not compatible, is there ANY print server that will work? For example, the HP Jetdirect ew2400 802.11g? Or, it need not be wireless though that would be preferable.

This could help you.
I was having trouble installing a HP P1006 Laser Printer on an Apple Airport. I worked for many hours with no avail. When plugged into the USB on the MacBook Pro, it printed great.
I noticed when the printer “self installed” using the USB, the name of the printer is
HP-P1006; and when I install the printer on the AirPort, it is called
Hewlett Packard HP-P1006. Having nothing to loose, I selected the Hewlett Packard HP-P1006 using Bonjour, then in the name below, I deleted the name Hewlett Packard_ leaving only the name HP-P1006. In other words, matching the name of the printer when using the USB. Too my amazement, it worked. I can now print wirelessly on the HP-P1006.

WIndows 7 64-bit system printing to a Windows 2000 server configured as a print server

Is there any way to configure a new Windows 7 64-bit computer to use a Windows 2000 server configured as a print server ?
The printer that I would like to connect to is an HP 4240n LaserJet. I appears that there is only a 64-bit Universal Print Driver available. The server currently uses HP 32-bit PCL5e or PCL6 drivers for all other connected computers. Connection is through a Hewlett-Packard Network Port, using DLC/LLC transport for the embedded 4240n print server.
Installing the HP 64-bit UPD to the WIndows 7 64-bit system, and then attempting to redirect the local port to the Win2k network print server has not worked.
Thanks for any advice.

Hi:
See if this works...
Run msconfig.
In the System Configuration screen, Boot tab, Advanced Options, if there is a check mark in the box next to Maximum memory. Remove that checkmark and save your changes.
Reboot and hopefully Windows recognises all the Ram ( minus the reserved ) after restarting.
Please give that a try, and post back and let us know if that frees up some system memory for you.

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:

Use my ibook g3 as a "print server"

Im interested in knowing if I can use my ibook g3 to be my networks print server.
As in hooking up ibook g3 to my network, then hooking up my printer to the ibook, and then print through it from my macbook. Does this make any sense? I hope it does. If this is possible please provide me with details on how to do this. Thanks in advance.

You should be able to - I'm doing a similar thing but using my iMac as the 'print server' so that I can print from my iBook over the wireless network.
Go to Sharing in System Preferences and tick the box for Printer Sharing. It should now be set up automatically, but you can check the printer is being shared in the Printer system preference.
(The iBook will need to be on all the time if you want to always be able to print - it can't be sleeping).
The printer should show up under 'Shared Printers' in the options for printing when you want to print on your MacBook (at least it does in 10.4, I've not upgraded to 10.5 yet so I don't know if it's different).

OSX Friendly Print Server?

Ok here's the deal, in my home I have 3 Macs (Tiger), and 2 XP boxes, and we have 1 printer (HP Deskjet 1220c). I just purchased the Hawking HPS1U print server for my network. The idea was to be able to print from all 5 systems (OSX-WinXP alike). There are a couple problems with the device, I wont go into all of them, but the deal is that it doesn't work with my Macs quite right and after some googling, I come to find the device ***** across the board. So suffice it to say, its getting returned.
I was wondering if any of you are using or know of a network print server that's OSX and Windows friendly that works well and is in the $50-$60 range? I've seen a couple, and I'm willing to give them a shot, but I figured if anyone knew of one that was working for them and what not, that would be even better.
Thanks!
Rob

Hi Rob,
Out of the 30 or so print servers that have been discussed here on Apple Discussions, only one was not compatible with OS X, because it really wasn't network standards compliant. OS X is fully network standards compliant.
The real problem, Rob, is that Many Many non-postscript printers don't have drivers that allow full use of OS X's CUPS system (which is what makes OS X standards compliant). Your 1220C has a Gimp-Print (CUPS) driver available on OS X, so that's not a problem for you. The Hawking does work with OS X and a CUPS driver.
I don't know why Apple has made zero effort to explain how to use the network print protocols, but they haven't. For example, the protocol standards for LPD and IPP require use of a queue name as part of the setup, to distinguish among the many print queues that are possible on one "server." This is entered automatically by the setup software provided for Windows, so users are mostly unaware that they must read through the manual for a print server and find the queue name to enter into Printer Setup on OS X.
Even Dlink print servers (Dlink has overt anti-Mac policies), because they follow the standards, will work with OS X.
I hope this helps.

Window 7 32 bit excel or word hangs when print using network printer

When trying to print from Word or Excel 2010 32bit, once I click print, there is a drop down menu to select
a printer. When I select the network printer (a HP Color Laserjet 5550), underneath the printer drop down it says "connecting to printer". Word or excel will hang and then show up as "not responding".
My pc is running on Windows 7 pro 32 bit, Word and Excel of Office 2010

Hi,
I noticed that you replied the similar thread, have you tied to the customer's resolution(Update/Reinstall the 32 bit driver on the network Print Server and then re-install the network printer, and then ran malwarebytes and
removed malware.)?
Then, we may try to plug the USB cable from your printer into an available USB port on your PC to test if possible.
If the issue still exists, I recommend we go to Event Viewer and collect the Event log. It'll help us to troubleshoot the issue, you could upload here.
