Gerald,
Unless the Asante FriendlyNet is a router and has the ability for one
port to be in an entirely different subnet from another, your problem is
that the printer's address needs to be set to something in the
192.168.1.X subnet, like maybe 192.168.1.10. This will allow your Mac to
see it on the network. After changing the LW's net address to this, you
can open a shell on your mac and ping 192.168.1.10. You should get a
response indicating that it is reaching the printer. If so, put that
address into CUPS and you should be printing within seconds.

I want to be able to use my LW16/600 with YDL 4 on a
G4 AGP Macintosh. It is connected with a crossover
cable through an Asante FriendlyNet box. YDL is
installed on the only hard drive in the computer.
Bootup shows both eth0 and CUPS to be up. I have been
unable to print to the printer. The printer is named:
grad.
ifconfig eth0 shows:
192.168.1.1
net mask
255.255.255.0
broadcast
192.168.1.255
The printer has an inet address of; 127.0.0.1
Whenever I try to config CUPS using networked UNIX I
am asked for a Server and Queue name.
I have used: 127.0.0.1 for the server
and lp1 for the Queue name.
Will I also have to download, install and config
Netatalk?
Any suggestions or pointers?
Thanks
