Guest

I have printer Epson CX3700 connecting to router (ip 192.168.1.1). I've
change OS from XP to Vista 32bit Business.
Now I can not print anithing.
If I install the port settings as ROW protocol (port 9100), printer starts
with printing normally, but it could not finish (as cycle job).
If I install the port setting as LPR protocol - nothing happend.

Does the router manual have instructions on the proper port configuration?

The manual should also have the queue name requirements if the device
supports the LPD.

I would also disable Bi-directional on the printer properties Ports tab
since Epson's normally attempt to perform ink status on the device that is
normally attached to the local system.

Router has not any instructions on port configuration.
And I did not see there any explanations about LPD...

So, I disabled bi-directional option - but result was the same.

I can't find this print device on the Epson website (I tried US, Canada,
Europe). Are you using a Vista driver?

Does the printer work when connected locally to the Vista machine?

If the print server does not document LPD it's probably not a supported
service so the LPR setting in Standard Port will send to a non existent
service.
