[ubuntu-za] Printing hardy annual

Hi all,

My apologies for posting this again, I have been trying to get to the 
bottom of my printing hassle and perhaps if I circulate what I have seen 
someone can help me.

Firstly there seems to be an IP address conflict between computer no 1 
and the printer - they are both on 10.0.0.3.

Computer no. 2 on the network IP is 10.0.0.4.

Computer no. 2 and the virtualbox on no.1 are able to pick up the router 
settings. No. 1 gets a 404 error message but they all connect to the 
Internet.

Computer no. 2 can access the printer, no. 1 cannot.

Computer no. 2 can "see" the virtualbox interface on no. 1, but no. 1 
cannot.

Is there common cause for the inability of no. 1 to connect to the 
printer, the router and the vbox?  If that is the case and the IP 
conflict is the problem, do I change the no. 2 IP or the printer IP? 
These have all been allocated via DHCP.

My IP range is 10.0.0.2 (the router IP) to 10.0.0.254.

Jan
