Anyone tried printing with JetCet?

I almost fell off my chair when I was able to connect to my Epson Workforce 600 & print emails, pictures & documents via WiFi. I simply typed in the IP address of my printer & selected a printer brand/type from a pull down menu. I did not see my printer listed, so I just choose the brand & selected any old printer in the list. To my surprise that seemed to work just fine. What's really bizzare is that on every computer in my household I had to install drivers & software to be able to print, yet with the Pro, it just printed out of the box.

Well offically it only support Epson, Canon and HP printers. So unless your printer can emulate a HP LaserJet... well... give it a try.

Works on my Brother 2070N which is emulated as a HP LaserJet and selected as a "LaserJet Monochrome Series" on the JetCet.

You might have trouble with that one. I *think* Lexmark manufactures Dell printers, and JetCet only supports HP, Epson & Canon. If I were to try one, I guess it would be the HP postscript printer.

Hmm PS didn't work for my Brother 2070N, it simply pumped out bunch of useless pages. What is your printer model Marc? If it's networked then it SHOULD by default be able to emulated as a HP LaserJet since HP's JetDirect protocol is EVERYWHERE lol

I tried the jetcet but could not get it to work via my printers ip address but i did get one of my printers to work via windows share. man being able to prinrt from my phone is sooo cool. i had tried several programs on my 6800 but no luck. Was really happy to get this.. now only if coupons.com would let me print hahaha..

tried hp laserjet monochrome series but nothing happened. maybe ill try each one until something pops. its not biggie if it doesn't work, i have BT on my printer anyway so its all good, but i do like using all the features of the pro...
