Digital BW, The Print

I have 10.2.6 and a 9600 using ethernet IP all using Linksys routers and swtiches.

As such, I have three print queues:
1.) 9600 (Epson driver)
2.) 9600GIMP
3.) 9600QUADTONERIP

I did *NOT* need to use the option key to get the IP address of the 9600

For the Epson driver I just chose "EpsonIP" and it found the IP address of the 9600.
For the two GIMP drivers I just chose "IP Printing" and typed in the IP address of the 
9600 and chose the appropriate drivers from the drop-dwon list
