We have an old printer with a parallel to Ethernet converter. zonet zps3611.  I need to update teh IP on the converter but dont know credentials. I can find no documentation or google results.  Anyone ever used this?

The IP address is in the converter. If it is that old, you have no documentation, and cannot log in, replace the Print Server. They are not expensive. Make sure you keep the documentation and setup.

If you know the old IP address, try typing it into your browser. If the PC is on a different, unreachable, subnet, you may need to temporarily change its settings as well.

If you don't know the IP address the only thing that will fix it is a factory reset. I did some searches but have not been able to come up with anything. If there is a little pinhole on the printserver, try pushing a pin into that while it is powered up. After a factory reset, the device should get a DHCP address on your current subnet.

Basically it wasnt worth the time to get a new adapter. the printer was old and was due for a change out.

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
