Printing problem I'm unable to establish a good connection between a Dell 966 AIO printer and a WRT54GS router. How can I create a static IP for that printer when my environment is DHCP?

It seems that I solved the problem by assigning to the printer an IP address outside the range of addresses DHCP allocated. In my case, the Linksys router has the ip addresses 192.168.1.2 thru 192.168.1.12 under DHCP; I assigned to the printer 1.20 and so far it is working. Thank you for your prompt reply.

You can reserve an IP address in your router configuration.

Bidi communication not available

Do you mean bi directional? If so then why abbreviate it? How is it connected, to what is it connected, what drivers are you using, what are you trying to achieve and how did you come to the conclusion that it was not available?

I have a Dell 966 AIO printer. All of the functions of the printer are working correctly, however, many of the phones in my home have ceased ringing. All are live and calls can be placed and received,...

Setup should look like...


Wall > ISP Modem/Router > Wireless router(if any) > Wired/wireless


If using DSL, a DSL Filter MUST be on ALL devices, phone, answering machine, faxes, etc..., everything EXCEPT the DSL Modem/Router.


You may share a DSL Filter.


Wall > DSL Filter > Splitter > Multiple Devices

I am unable to "enable bidirectional communication" with my AIO 966

Is it connected via a parallel port? If so, then you need to change the parallel port type in your computer's BIOS Setup to EPP or ECP type; Windows will register the new port type and you should be able to establish a bi-di connection.
BTW, does it not work without this bi-directional connection? The only thing you lose is some fancy stuff like ink levels monitoring etc.
