I need to know the ip address of my printer from OSX to be able to configure it in my daughters Windows laptop. I tried the solution suggested in https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/30149/how-do-you-get-a-printers-ip-in-lion but I only get: *dnssd://AL-CX11-08F61E._printer._tcp.local./auto*, and I cannot ping AL-CX11-08F61E._printer._tcp.local. because it does not resolve. Still, I can print. How do I get the actual IP address? Edit: why doesn't it resolve from the commandline, but still OSX can print?
