sebus Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Client in Vlan 100, Windows Print Server & all printers in Vlan 20 Full routing between provided by core switch I can add the printer on Mac by IP, no issue, but need to add it via Windows Print Server And Printers & Scanners settings applet simply does NOT see Windows Print Server that exists in Vlan 20 Is there any other way to add the printer? Terminal command line? It is mad that one cannot specify in GUI print server, it has to be only selected (which I cannot) sebus Edited September 11, 2020 by sebus Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/345091-solved-mac-add-printer-not-seeing-windows-print-server-in-different-vlan/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebus Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 Yes, I will test CUPS in the morning, that is how I manage printer driver preference for years anyway. Will report back.

sebus Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 It is indeed the case that with CUPS web interface one can specify the location of the printer ( smb://printserver/printer-name ) Hence that was the working solution in that case, thanks!
