Hi there,

I'm trying to install a Kyocera TASKalfa 3500i netwrk printer, I have the ppd file and the ip address, but I don't know how to use it.

Via http://localhost:631/ i can try:

LPD/LPR Host or Printer
AppSocket/HP JetDirect
Internet Printing Protocol (https)
Internet Printing Protocol (ipp)
Internet Printing Protocol (http)
Internet Printing Protocol (ipps)
Internet Printing Protocol (ipp14)
Windows Printer via SAMBA

But I don't know which one should I use, I tried all, but maybe I'm wrong doing something.

I have a Debian testing.

Thanks

Is the Kyocera already set up on a server? Do you want to set it up as a server? It's not really clear what you want to do exactly. I guess it's not directly plugged into your own machine. Correct? So either it's plugged into another machine or into your router. Is that right?

Hello,

I'm just trying to install as a network printer on my pc, the printer usually prints from windows computers and they only need the ip address (i have it) and a gateway (have it too) to install (on windows), it's a job shared network printer, needs passwords (i have my own). I don't know about the server, is not plugget to a machine, I think the printer is plugged into a router.

Thank you.

...I tried to get some help by the boys who manage the network and the office systems, but they don't know anything about linux.
:S

I would try the ipps option. That's the one used by clients on my own local network.
