You get other alarm messages from the GNAT Box,
I assume (so that you know that Alarm messages
are being generated for things that the GNAT Box
blocks)?
If so, and if you are not getting block messages
for this traffic, then that narrows it down to
two possibilities:
1. The network packets from the UNIX system are
not arriving at the GNAT Box. Check for
packet filtering on the router and things
like that.
2. The network packets are being accepted by
the GNAT Box, but the printer is not
accepting them or not replying to them.
Make sure that the default route is set
correctly on the printer.
