<div><br></div><div>Hello,</div><div><br></div><div>I haven't tried a direct (not-through-hub) printer connection, but I recall that computer-to-computer ethernet connections need to use a 'crossover' cable (Ethernet cable with the TX/RX pair crossed). Connecting to the printer directly might need such a cable as well. They are not usually very easy to tell from the normal cables, and are rare, though.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Georgia; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Georgia" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Georgia">Manoah F.
