NOTE
|
|
If you change a printer name that has been previously set, you may become unable to print from a Macintosh. This is because the mDNS name used for IPv4/IPv6 is changed. In this case, add the machine to the Macintosh again.
Entering the printer name makes it easier to identify multiple printers that support AirPrint.
