What distribution are you using? On those desktop oriented ones, it works out of the box.
- michaelt 5y agoZeroconf on Linux works so well I get to see my printer three times - advertised in Windows format and Mac format; and by IP and mDNS hostname.
- vetinari 5y agoYou probably have several discovery protocols enabled on the printer, and your computer dutifully shows each one. I see two scanners for the same reason - one via WSD, one through AirScan.
- tomxor 5y agoYeah i'm not getting the parent either, on Debian you just install the avahi package and it's done. Maybe other distros are more complicated.
