Office Jet Pro 8630
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Help please. I'm new at this. At my office I have an 8630 printer on my network. the printer Ip is 10.1.10.10 and a GW of 10.1.10.1, my router. I have forwarded port 9100 to the printer. On my local computer at home I tried to set it up to priint to TCP/iP port with the static IP of my router using port 9100. Also in the printer web interface I turned on the pport 9100 feature. Can anyone assist as to why it won't print?

I don't know what you mean by forwarded port 9100 to the printer.

As far as I recall when we set up a tcp/ip port and put in an IP address and then look at advanced settings that's where the port number is found.

The only time I've ever had to change a port number is when I was using an external Jetdirect with 3 parallel ports on it and then we had ports 9100, 9101 and 9102.
