connect to printer problem

[=?iso-8859-1?Q?Vicente_Garc=EDa?=]

Hello all,

I have an a bit strange printer and I would like to connect a C# program
running on my computer to the printer. I know that the printer can be
connected by LAN (TCP/IP protocol, 10/100 Base-T) but I am not quite sure
of its meaning. I have not seen anything about that the printer could be
connected by a specific port. Could someone please tell me if I can connect
the computer to the printer via the Internet and how I could do this job?

Apologies for my English,
Thanks in advance.
Vicente.

Hello, Vicente!

AFAIR network printer can be connected directly to the network and have its
own IP and port.

Also printer can be connected to the computer, that has IP address on the
network.

Hi Vadym,

I typed http://192.168.2.4/ in the domain and then I obtained info about the
printer (the machine produces labels)

TCP/IP status
IP address : 192.168.2.4(DHCP)
Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
Gateway addr: 192.168.2.1
DHCP Server : 192.168.2.1
Lease time : 172800sec.
WINS server(Pri.): 0.0.0.0
WINS server(Sec.): 0.0.0.0
NetBIOS Scope ID :

But I think I need a port which connect from my PC (PC and printer are in
the same local network). Next I must send and receive ASCII messages to and
from the printer from the PC.

Many many thanks
Vicente.
