Hi All, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I am sure that this is an easy thing to achieve, but for some reason I |
| 4 |
seem to fail to get it going. Probably because I do not completely |
| 5 |
understand the logic. The setup is as follows: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I have two boxen, hostname1.STUDY and hostname2.STUDY. hostname2 has the |
| 8 |
printer connected to it via parallel port. The printer's name is |
| 9 |
Compaq-HP. Hostname2 can print locally without a hitch. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I created a new printer on hostname1 and also named it Compaq-HP. I set |
| 12 |
the ipp address to ipp://hostname2.STUDY/ipp but I kept getting errors |
| 13 |
telling me it can't resolve the address. So I changed it to the LAN ip |
| 14 |
address (ipp://192.163.0.3/ipp)and it seems that it can now connect, but |
| 15 |
it cannot find the printer: |
| 16 |

Would you know why it can't resolve hostname2.STUDY? Am I meant to add |
| 41 |
the printer name on the ipp://192.168.0.3/ipp? |
