Macbook Pro and HP Laserjet 5000n
I'm new to Macs. I have a Macbook Pro and an HP Laserjet 5000n. I have the 5000n connected with an Ethernet cable running from the JetDirect port to my Actiontec Verizon FIOS combination modem/wireless router. With this arrangement I am able to print using my other computer, a Windows XP desktop which is hardwired via Ethernet to the router.
I downloaded the drivers onto my Macbook Pro for the LJ 5000n from the HP web site.
That produced two icons on my Macbook desktop. In Settings I went to Printers and Faxes and added the HP Laserjet 5000n via Internet Printing Protocol successfull.
I thought I was finished. Would that it be so.
I tried to print a document from a web site but nothing happened. I clicked on the image of the 5000n on the dock and saw my document listed as "Printing." But I also saw a message that aid, "Unable to check status (Not implemented)."
I suspect that I failed to do something that I should have done to get this printer to print. But, alas. What is it?
Can anyone help?
Thanks so much.
