misc Xerox centre's and bonjour
Ok, where I work has 70+ printers including HP 4000s, 4050s, 4200s, 4250, 4600's, 4700 and some misc Xeroxes
WorkCentre Pro 35 (x3), WorkCentre Pro 55 (x4), 4110 (x1), DocuColor Centre 425st and 490 and a WorkCentre M20i ...
We want to start using mDNS (bonjour), but for the life of me cannot get any (except for the M20i) to broadcast via mDNS. I know it's not a network issue because I can see all of the HP (expect for the ones with the old cards which are getting replaced soon) and We can print to them with the IP address.
anyone know how to enable mDNS (bojour) broadcast on xerox Copy / printers?

Re: misc Xerox centre's and bonjour
If they're old enough, the Xerox machines might simply not support it. Check the documentation.
Maybe a dedicated mac with IP printing set up, then use printer sharing?
