Default Fedora 7 and Canon IR 3170 printer installation
At work i have got my laptop with FC7. I tried to install our work's printer (on 192.168.2.50) , here what I did :

Through GUI, System-->Administration-->Printing--> New Printer ,,,,but i do not what to choost to assign TCP/IP port to the FC7 PC.

What option should I choose :

Windows Printer via SAMBA
AppSocket/HP JetDirect
Internet Printing Protocol
LPD/LPR Host or Printer
Other

Any help how to setup the printer.

Do i need to use command line or still I can do through GUI

I used to install other network printer on FC4, FC5

If I could not find the proper driver for our canot printer iR C3170.

Do I need to install one ? or the generic linux one does the job.

Regards

Use GUI tools, Select AppSocket/HP JetDirect and specify IP / port and other details.

I tried that , but I would not have been able to print!!!. The port number was chosen by defult as 9010 (I do not remember exactly the number), do I need to edit that ? if so to what number ?

No need to edit files, GUI tools are sufficient. You must know exact port and ip address / driver . Also make sure firewall is not blocking access to printer. Type the following to see if iptables is blocked or what
Code:
iptables -L -n
Also don't forget to start printer service from GUI. Once done you should able to print a test page.

Thanks nixcraft for your reply

What I meant here is : as you know in Win OS I have got TCP/IP port which is : 192.168.2.50,,,I do not have any other port number, like the one that linux produces it (i.e. 9010),,,,therefore my question under linux OS do I need to edit that port number ?

Quote:
iptables -L -n
Worth to try it and I will update you.

You meant CUPS , yes it was enabled.

I could not find the exact name as windows found which is IR 3170, I used : "Canon MultiPASS C3000 Foomatic/bjc600 (recommended)" do you thing this is the problem ?

The my linux box communicates with the printer, but the printer gives error message and it can not print the test page or any other page

I have got two PCs one of them is desktop XP, and other is laptop FC7, with XP I can print no problem.

Printer is inside locked room, I will try to access that room to print configuration details, but meanwhile please look at these screenshots that obtained from the PC with XP OS.
