Print to a printer connected to a router SOLVED

[Johan]

SOLVED!

Just so easy...
This solution I found in a forum at netgear - but the support from netgear doesn't answer!

with the web interface modify the printer. It should be
LPD/LPR
lpd://192.168.0.11/p1
for my printer (hp laserjet1010) i use hpijs/foomatic

Now it works perfectly!

How easy it would be if the support at netgear would tell the name of the port...
