To test the connection, once again type the
ping
command from a workstation on the
same subnet as the printer:
ping
printer_IP_name
If the
ping
command responds by telling you that the printer is alive on the
network, the address assignment was successful.
If the
ping
command does not respond, or tells you the printer was not
found, then the address assignment failed. Try the steps in this procedure
again, making sure you type the printer’s Ethernet address exactly as it
appears on the startup page. If it still doesn’t work, see the troubleshooting
suggestions in Chapter 12.

Try printing by using this command:
lpr -P
queue_name filename
Note that there’s no space between
-P
and queue_name.
