Printing to a printer shared through Q6275A HP USB Network Print Adapter

Good Day Adam

Without looking into the manual's or anything, you should be able to use HPLIP and setup your printer as a network printer. You will need to know the IP address of your printer. That is hopefully a simple push of a button for a config page. Check your documentation on the LAN adapter.

Thanks

Hi there,

Did anyone ever get this working?

I run Ubuntu 9.04 with HPLIP.

nmap scan yields:
Nmap Scan identifies the following:
Interesting ports on HVPD5591D (192.168.1.8):
Not shown: 65532 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
1720/tcp filtered H.323/Q.931
34447/tcp open unknown
34448/tcp open unknown

I tried connecting using HPLIP, CUPS Web Interface and via Ubuntu Printer GUI.

Note HPLIP will not work as it defaults to port 9100 which is not open.

any ideas?

If I modify the printer URI to have one of the open ports, that is http://192.168.1.8:34447/ipp/ will yield the following:

"Connected to 192.168.1.8..."

However, the test page just sits in the printer queue and does not print.

Oddly if I modify the URI of the printer to the second open port,that is http://192.168.1.8:34448/ipp/ , I get the following:
"recoverable: Network host '192.168.1.8' is busy; will retry in 5 seconds..."

I have tried socket:// and ipp:// versions also with no look.

I also tried the printer URI http://192.168.1.8:631/ipp/

Cheers,
Will.
