Ping generally uses port 80/443,
ping does not use any port at all. There is no notion of ports in ICMP. Right :-)
But you can tell some ping programs to use udp/tcp and adjust the port.
nping --tcp -p 443 hostname
I think this is getting off the problem--obviously the computer sees the printer-- it turns on the "in-use" light and the little green hosrseshoe indicator, it just doesn't actually print anything. I would think it was a printer problem, but it prints perfectly from a laptop running Mint Linux. --doug
Pretty difficult to help you when you won't answer simple questions. I'm/We are not mind readers.
Wireless connection or ethernet cable at the PC with openSUSE that Wired ethernet cable connection from computer to ASUS router or Netgear switch (don't know which without tracing cables) All connections here are hard wired. won't print?
Wireless connection or ethernet cable at the M201dw printer?08 Wired ethernet cable connections from router or switch to printers
What does the CUPS webpage say about the connection to the M201dw printer? Which CUPS heading should I look on to answer this question?
I'm asking these questions to see if you have a network issue or a printer driver problem. The printer worked for a while, then it stopped working. It still works fine from the Mint computer, which is connected thru the router /switch the same way. The Epson also works fine from the Mint computer, without complaining about the page size.
FYI: both printers have fixed IP addresses. LaserJet is 192.168.1.29; Epson is 192.168.1.26. Mark Thank you for your interest. What should I do now? --doug
