Still no printer in OSX 10.2.6...I'll try to pose the question a little differently, Does anyone know how to "identify" a Network printer's IP address when connected to a router? (My printers config sheet is no help HP LaserJet 6mp) Again the printer IS working in OS9.
Okay, maybe I can be of some help.
Open up your "system preferences", then open up "network". You will see a panel with 4 tabs: TCP/IP, PPPoE, AppleTalk, and Proxies. Open TCP/IP...down on the left half of the panel, under the "Configure" scroll box are 3 pieces of info. The 3rd one down, Router" should show your Router Address which will be a number like this: 192.168.0.1
If you have a router with 4 connections or however many, the addresses can go like this:
192.168.0.0
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.2
192.168.0.3
192.168.0.4
etc. The last number of the router address can have sequential changes. You can try adding a printer with each different address and see if you can get somewhere.
