Canon Pixma iX6850 Printer (i.e. network capable);
Plugged into port 3 (of 5) via Ethernet cable on router...
How to setup?
Was previously connected via USB; trying to simplify the rats nest under my desk.
thanks,
john
Have you/router assigned an IP address of the printer? First follow my advice of removing autodiscovery of printers which I have covered in the unofficial manual for Zorin 17. Next from the terminal enter the command:
sudo system-config-printer
When the Print settings opens, select add printer, then choose network and then the option which has Jet Direct in it and enter the ip address of the printer in the appropriate field. This also is covered in the unofficial manual for Zorin 17 I authored.
