Using the printserver of the SMT-G3210 with Linux

To use the build in printserver of the Samsung router SMT-G3210 with Linux, you usuall have to know which print-protocol is used. Since I have the router at home already I wanted to use it for printing over the network. I just had to plug in the usb of my printer into the router and the printer was already recognized, as I could see in the routers webfrontend. Know I didn't know how to set the printer up on my Ubuntu system. Checking out the routers manual I couldn't find any hints. Finally I hit the right protokoll, it's AppSocket/HP JetDirect section you have to use. You just have to enter the IP of the router and press next. After you finished the rest of the normal procedure (choosing the driver/name) it should work.



I hope that helps others finding themselves in the same situation!

    Hat wirklich sehr geholfen. Aber leider ist die angegebene IP-Adresse falsch, was jedoch durch eine Google-"Abfrage" schnell gelöst werden konnte.

  2. Stefan Horning: *Klar, die muss natürlich durch die deines Routers ersetzt werden. ;-) Es ging hier ja nur darum welches das verwendete Protokoll ist.

  3. Nick: *Thanks a lot!
