I'm going to ask the obvious question: Is your Linux computer in the
same subnet as the printer? (i.e. 172.16..)
Yes
Is that the IP of the printer?
For what it's worth, even if it is, browsing to that IP may not do you
any good. They may simply have the printer listening, without
providing
any interface. That's what my HP LaserJet 4M does (it's there on the
network, listening and printing, but doesn't provide any kind of
interface to the outside world).
Exactly. It does not let me browse.
Is that the IP of the router?
The printer's IP is the same as the wireless router (i.e. 172.16.100.1
and the Linux system is 172.16.100.x)
In that case, I'd expect that the router is acting as an internet
printing server, and ought to have some kind of interface. But
you may
have more luck going to the root of the server (instead of directly to
the printer address), <http://172.16.100.1:631/>, to see if that gives
you an interface.
Tried that also, and it did not show anything on the browser. The
process list on the DLink Router shows a program named ippd running
which provides the interface to the printer.
Can you access the router's print server port via telnet?
telnet 172.16.100.1 631
If not try disabling the Fedora's firewall.
Also, last week i had a problem with a customer, and it was he
configured a wrong net mask in the Linux box.
I suppose that ping and traceroute to the printserver's IP give the
expected results, did you tried it?
