Re: [Internet] Sagemcom F@st 2864 usb printer Usually with usb printers connected to a network device it is because the network device has a "print server" built in.
If you have a printer driver already loaded on your computer, you will HAVE TO DELETE IT AND REINSTALL.
Login into the Control Panel, click on printers and delete the Brother HL-2040 printer.
1. Click on add printer - An Add Printer Wizzard may start.
2. Select - A network printer, or a printer attached to another computer.
3. Select - Browse for a printer.
4. Select the device where the printer is attached. Make sure the printer is turned on.
5. Follow on screen instructions.
Depending on the version of Windows you are using, the headings and wording MAY BE DIFFERENT.

kudos:1 | There's no need to delete the printer, just add a new port to the installed printer |

kudos:1 | If you know what the port is, other wise that printer, previously connected somewhere else won't work.
I have a networked Dell Colour laser with IP 192.168.0.xx - port 9100.
Also a Dell usb monochrome printer attached to a DLink NAS DNS-343. The printer is listed as a virtual device; no port number.
Windows can set the printer up for you.

kudos:1 | The original poster put this in the first postsaid by liaden:In the past I had this connected to my tomato router and it worked by adding a standard tcp/ip printer port at the router's ip address, setting the protocol to RAW, the port number to 9100 |

If the OP uses the tomato router, he/she has to connect the tomato router and change no setttings.
If he/she does NOT use the tomato router, AS I POSTED ABOVE.
