Can anyone help with how to get a suitable printer driver ? I have a Canon LBP5200.

Well, I've tried both the front and rear USB ports for my Canon LBP5200. It shows up OK in the Thecus / Status / Printer screen, and I am able to add it as a network printer on my W2K and XP pcs. However, when I try to print, I get a printer dialog saying 'The printer is connected to port which is not supported. Check the port'.
Any ideas ?

Eh yes - seems that my FTP program reported kb/s rather than mb/s. So, onto the next thing now, try and get my USB printer working !

Andreas - you are a genius ! That worked. I set my adaptor from auto to 100mb duplex and now I get 7kb/s or more (on small files like mp3's. Thanks a million.

I wish I knew how to speed up the transfer of my music library to the N1200 which contains a HITACHI Deskstar T7K500 320GB S300 8MB. I've currently got a WD Lifebook attached with USB2 to my PC, and the N1200 network attached to a Belkin ADSL router, on the same subnet as the PC. Transfer speed is awful. I've stopped the iTunes and Media servers, as the N1200 CPU was running at 100% - I assume it was constantly trying to refresh the db. However, this has not improved transfer speeds significantly. I've tried attaching the WD Lifebook directly to the N1200, but in that configuration I cannot see how to copy between the drives. Any thoughts most welcomed !
[Update] I did some further tests - plugging the N1200 ethernet directly into the PC, having a 1gb link then. My results seem to show that the network ports in the N1200 are where the problem is:
Firmware version 1.0.06
1GB network link, directly connected between PC and N1200, which is a 1GB link, I get just 12kb/s on FTP. N1200 shows cpu% of 0 to 1%. WAN light is flickering regularly.
Ping from PC (whilst FTP copy is taking place) is:

OK, I'll try it even though it has the same version number as the one on the CD. [Edit] Well, that worked ! Not sure why the version they are currently shipping on the CD (1.1.8) does not work, but the downloaded one (v1.1.8) does. Note: you need to hit reload on the browser window to get the start screen.

I've just gone through the install procedure using the supplied 1.1.8 setup. It found the N1200 OK and completed the installation procedure. However, when I start the browser, I get a page saying 'Please Use Setup Wizard', rather than the expected Admin Interface login screen. Any suggestions welcome ...
