Brother HL-2070N doesnt show up on RedayNAS Duo V2

Connected Brother HL-2070N to readynas Duo V2.
Doesnt show up - neither in Duo's dash bord or W7 net work resources.
What could be wrong - how to fix?
Printer works fine when connected directed to PC , but I want to use Duo to enable printer sharing without having it connected to PC.

use Raditor 5.35

  • Palle - according to the information I can find, the HL-2070N is a network capable printer, hence the "N" at the end. All you would need to connect it to your network is an ethernet cable, so why would you want to use the Duo v2 as a print server? Directly connecting a printer to the network is a far better solution.
  • I have the HL-2070N and Duo v2. PapaBear is correct. The Brother printer has an ethernet port. Just connect the printer to your ethernet network and should be able to share the printer over the network.
