Printing from Win2k to OS 10.2 Mac USB printer
I don't have Win2K but just Win98 and was convinced that I could make my new Samsung ML1710 work as both a shared and a local printer. I discovered that as soon as I used the advanced setting to make it work on the network it wouldn't work on the local, so I think I have come up with a workaround using a lot of the information you provide above. It appears that to work locally you need to retain one printer with the URI of file:///dev/null (which when you use http://127.0.0.1:631 will show up as file://dev/null, i.e. 2 rather than 3 ///'s). On the other hand if you created a printer using the option click add and chose advanced and chose the printer that it listed, the one that worked locally would be replaced. So...what I did was use choose to add a USB printer instead and pasted in the string that you found with ipinfo -v for the printer that you are trying to connect but give it a new name, e.g. MyPrinterSMB or some such. |
