Windows 98SE Connection to Printer Using TCP/IP

A good thought, but my visit to the Linksys site doesn't show any
software available for this purpose.

I am having the same problem in that I am trying to set up a print server
for 2 XP boxes and 1 Win 98. As Alex mentioned, the 98 boxes can't print
to an IP address natively. I checked the HP page that Ron Lowe suggested,
and I notice that the download seems to say that it will only work for HP
Jet direct servers. I did download it and will try it tomorrow, but I was
just wondering if anyone knows offhand that it will not work with a Linksys
print server.

Thanks

What is the make a model of the router/print server?

Thank you, your post sparked my brain to the solution. When I realized
you were referring to the regular driver, I installed it on the Win98
machine and it configured the port and I can now print successfully.
Since the 2nd XP box didn't need a driver, just a port configuration, I
thought that's all Win98 needed also.

The print server is the WPS54GU2, and I had the driver already.

Thanks for your help.
