Yes but..... what makes you think it is going to work on port 9100??
<br>
<br>
I haven't dug into the print server docs that you have, but it should
mention a port in there to use.

It comes with Windows software for managing the server. I went into it,
and it is printing on 9100 right now. Just not from my Kubuntu box.

Are you treating it as a JetDirect printer or an "IPP" printer?
There's a big difference. I know the JetDirect mode (JetDirect mode
runs on TCP 9100) works because that's what I'm doing, and it's also
how I set up my Dad's LaserJet 1100A (it has a TrendNet on its parallel
port). I have not used any Windows software whatsoever to configure
the TrendNet--ever--only the Web interface, with Firefox 3. Here's how
they should look (this is on my work box, from the CUPS Web interface).<br>

If you cannot get the JetDirect mode to work, then give the IPP (TCP
port 631) mode a shot and let us know.<br>
