Could you do me a favour?  I couldn't find any useful numbers for the
Xerox N17 printer on their gaudy web pile.  If 9100 works, could you
also check if you can telnet to port 23 and/or 2002?

Tea?  My mom used to make me tea when I got sick.  Now, I drink tea
and I get sick.  Pavlov was right.

Unix and Linux Support

>Many, many, many thanks, Simon

One is usually sufficient.  Try this for fun:

getmany printer_ip public iso
snmpstat -s printer_ip

If they support SNMP, they should return some interesting info.  You
get a page count or set an alarm to warn you when it runs out of
paper.  It's also nice for checking the firmware version of
HPJetDirect print servers.
