Printing from Mac OSX? (HP Deskjet)

[Maxven]

Hi.

I've tried setting up an HP deskjet 880C as a shared printer using the USB port on an Asus WL500g.

I went to Add new printer, IP-printing (the IP of the router), entered LPRServer as Queue-Name but I can't find a driver that matches my printer. There are lots of Laserjets and other printers listed but not a single Deskjet.

When the printer is connected directly to the Mac's USB port it easily identifies it as a Deskjet 880C.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance, Maxven

Manually change the print port in properties of your installed usb printer.
For inspiration you may install another printer from the list.

P.S. I don't know MacOS details.

Hi anarchist.

Thanks for your advice but I don't think that can be done in Mac OSX.
I searched the forum before posting my question and from other posts it sounds like IP-printing is the way to go.
Now if I could just make it work....
