A network printer have to show an "open jetdirect" port

jdd still no sign of the Epson. --doug

which would be an indication that the jetdirect port is not open. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode

line referring to a jetdirect port. There are a few lines that say Disable: Privacy Extensions; Proxy Use; Dynamic DNS; Epson Connect; Google Cloud Print. It would seem that if a critical port was not open, the printer would not print from ANY operating system, not so? --doug

...

it's just probably not jetdirect compatible... too bad :-(

Epson WP4530 once had a static IP. Perhaps now damaged by lightning in July. At any rate, nmap shows NO ip address for the printer, yet Windows 10 and Mint can write to it. How does that work?

Are you asking what the IP address is or are you asking why W/10 and Mint have smarts that nmap/openSuse don't have?

I'm asking what the ip address is, and why I can't find out. However, I certainly do note that Windows and Mint and perhaps other systems have and why such basic needs cannot be met by a sophisticated system like OpenSUSE Leap.  (The nmap claims to be the same on both systems.) I might not have found the Windows facility without having to go to that confusing system in order to print things! How are these all connected?

Is this via a switch (possibly as part of your router) as the backbone device?  Is it handing out addresses via DHCP?  There is going to be some way to address the management function of the switch to get it to report what it thinks it has connected and why.  Right now, I have not set any static ips, altho the HP printer might have one: 192.168.0.103.

Or, perhaps, there's a matter of a different subnet... Everything is connected by cable on the lan thru a "D-LINK DIR-632 wireless N  8-port routerwith an unused wireless function. Description is off the 'net.

I'm not at all familiar with the details of the lan operation--I don't know what subnets might exist or why, or how to find them if they do. With regard to wireless operations: I have been wiring these kind of connections since about 1985 or so and I trust them more than wireless, especially since I have an S9 noise level on the low ham bands. Yes, I've been at this for a while now, since CPM, and now I'm an old man and maybe not as sharp as I should be. . . . --doug

Run Wireshark, filtering on the printer MAC address.  You could also check the arp cache, after printing something.

Not true. Wireshark is in 15.3 in the main repository, and there have been 2 updates since release.

Followup: entered the MAC address and got this message: "can't parse filter expression: syntax error" The actual MAC address is: A4:EE:57:73:CB:85 That's exactly what's shown on the printer status printout. --doug

Ignore wireshark. Seriously, don't. You don't have the knowledge to use it and we can't teach you, too complex. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
