Added another switch on the wired network at the shop so that a wireless printer can be a wired printer (I can't just use the USB cable between the computer and the printer for printing because the printer driver is so awful that it works a lot better as generic PCL printer over IPP, but the scanning side of that works fine over USB). Hopefully it'll work better that way. As long as I was messing with the printer settings anyway, I also have it no longer conflicting with some lab equipment.

If I tried to use it as a printer over USB, what happens is it'll let you queue up print jobs, not print them, and then when you restart the computer it will print the queued jobs, but not any new ones until you restart the computer again. But at least the generic PCL driver works for all the printing features if I go over a network. :cirnoShrug:
