Hello,

I have tried both "Administration -> Printing" config tool and the
web interface (localhost:631) to add an Epson R340 printer.
The printer is connected to my Apple Airport Extreme's USB
printer port.  I have configured the printer to use a JetDirect socket
with the port 9101.  Unfortunately, when I run "tcpdump -i eth1",
the port listed is 9100.  I am unable to use my printer.  This seems
like a bug.

BTW, my update today installed the gutenprint 5.0.0-rc2 drivers.
This driver set includes a driver for the R340.  Previously, I was
trying to use the R300 driver.

Thanks,
      Miles
