Default If you print from Windows 10 to your LAN networked printer - have you also printed from Android? How?

HP printers use TCP port 9100 by default


Hi JT,

Thank you for your purposefully helpful information about the port that the
HP printers use by default being port 9100. Much appreciated.

I instantly ran this quick test the moment I saw your post:
o telnet 192.168.0.20 9100 (connects, but I can't talk printer protocol)
o telnet 192.168.0.20 9200 (fails, I chose that port arbitrarily to test)

Indeed, you are correct that the HP LJ 2100tn is listening on port 9100.
o Thank you for being a good netizen by helping others out.

I wonder why port 9100 didn't show up in the ipscan for that printer?
o Printer's IP address, by Alex Trishan

o IP = 192.168.0.20
o Ping = 2ms
o Hostname = [n/a]
o Ports[3+] = 80

I checked the automatically set settings in Android LetsPrintDroid:

Notice they _also_ confirm they automatically chose port 9100.

Do you perchance know what the "RAW" means in the "RAW - Jet Direct"
o Is that "RAW" format the same thing as "PCL-5" format?
