I have a Linksys PPSX1 print server on a LAN with a PC running Window
XP SP1. When I turn on the the Internet Connection Firewall, printing
fails. I added an exception for port 9100. This didn't help. I also
noticed that the port numbers used by the print server differ on each
new printing attempt. I suspect the Windows Firewall is also blocking
IPX packets that this (old) Linksys print server wants to use. Am I
out of luck with the Windows Firewall and this device or does someone
know of a simple fix?
Thanks!
