I just got a DEC LN17PS laser printer *very* cheap. It has duplex printing, envelope printing, and a network card. I want to set up CUPS on my Red hat 7.3 box to talk to it. The problem is, I can't figure out how to see/change the IP address of the network card. I cannot find an online manual for this thing, and the ethernet config menu on it does not mention IP addresses. I found references to it talking on port 2501, but that's it. PS- This is supposed to be the same thing as the Xeron 4517 (it uses the Xerox LN17 engine) and the IBM Network Printer 17. BTW, I tried running tcpdump on my server's intranet card then turning the printer on, and saw activity that I simply cannot interpret. For a sample see http://thekramers.net/tmp/decoutput.txt Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer http://thekramers.net DK KD "If I asked you where we were," said Arthur weakly, "would I DKK D regret it?"

"Ah." said Arthur, "this is obviously some strange usage of the word _safe_ that I wasn't previously aware of." Douglas Adams, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy".
