hello, I just  bought a new deskjet 2630 printer and it works fine when sending printjobs from the app on android or pc windows. However, this wasn't my main purpose for it. I am using  it for development purposes with a device which no app can be installed on. so I need the network port number to achieve this. Usually it's 9100 and I tried my device with other printers and it was ok,  so it must be the port number. I tried so far 9100, 3900, 3911, 3910 and many others with no success.

Also, there seems to be a connection with some of these numbers, but I don't know if it the printer already receives something or not!

I really like this printer, but I can't continue with it this way!

So what is this printere's network port number to send jobs to?

Hi,

The printer uses port 9100 for printing indeed, however, such a lower-end PCL3 printer must use a print driver to print.

 

My first recommendation would be to check for your device requirements, I would not be surprised if such a device requires a higher-end PCL XL printer (usually HP Laserjet printers offers such functionality).
