Hi, You won't be able to ping our hp4550. It has an internal Class C IP address which is meaningless outside of our network. I can ping the printer from the inside. You're probably right about having to add the Linux machines to some kind of allowed machine list. We also have an hp4050tn, and I can print fine to that from the Linux machines. Thanks,
