It's sufficient. After the file is processed by cups-filters it is sent to the printer at 10.0.0.8 with the bjnp protocol. Protocols like ipp and socket are open; bjnp isn't. Presumably the printer manufacturer has decided it makes better use of the printer capabilities, Whatever the reason (and this we willprobably never know) it is a protocol which some Canon printers employ. Someone reverse engineering it is a success for free software. Someone else packaging it for Debian is a benefit for us. > > The printer address is given above, before the port number. > > Right, and the output of the command is? It is likely to show there is nothing listening on the IPP and socket ports. Which was the point of the original question about nmap. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
