Re: HPLIP cannot detect printers

[Mikhail Ramendik]

Sanity check: is there a Windows machine on the network and can it detect
the printers?

I have encountered cases when such detection just Does Not Work, from
Windows too, apparently because of the router but I could not figure out
the details and just fixed the IP of the printer via DHCP settings, then
entered it in drivers.
