[G4] HP Laserjet 4M and Mini: New Problem

[Wayne Clodfelter]

 From Mac Help:
Settings for different network connections can be saved in  
"locations." Your default location, named "Automatic," includes  
settings for each of your computer's network "ports," or methods of  
connecting. Ports include Built-in Ethernet, AirPort, and an Internal  
or External Modem.

Notice that built-in ethernet and airport are BOTH listed above. I  
think it should be possible to configure a pane for each within one  
"location" using the Network system preference panel.

There should be no conflict between a wireless connection between  
internet and computer and a wired connection between computer and  
printer.

Not that I am never wrong.
