HUB USB printer

From the http://www.frequencycast.co.uk/homehubfaq.html web site.
USB Printer sharing: There's been discussion in the Home Hub forum about printer sharing. It seems that it may be possible to connect a printer to the hub via USB and to access it via the network. Thanks to forum visitor Julioarca for telling us what worked for him:

  1. Add your printer normally as if its attached to your machine.
  2. Once added, right click on properties then on the ports tab.
  3. Click add port, choose Standard TCP/IP Port, click New Port.
  4. Enter 192.168.1.253 as the IP address, and anything you like as the name.
  5. Click Custom, then Settings.
  6. Choose LPR as protocol Queue Name: LPT1 check LPR byte counting as enabled, click ok.
  7. Finish the wizard.
