Thanks. My provider said I would have to buy a static ip address before they could assign it to my printer. They want $114 a month. I will either lern to live with my problem - print a configuration page each time I want to use the printer to find its ip, then add a printer with that ip, and finally print - or buy a Bonjour b/w laser printer.

I bought a Brother 2550sonething for 200. B&W laser very nice. Color lasers more expensive. Will not buy another inkjet, ink too expensive and cartridges dry out quickly. > _______________________________________________ > X4U mailing list > X4U at listserver.themacintoshguy.com > http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/x4u > > Seven Cent Deals - Great legacy stuff Great Legacy Price > http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?cat=Seven+Cent+Deal >
