Sep 6, 2018 at 18:59 comment added RalfFriedl No, then just configure your Linux or Windows system to send the print data to port 9100 on the Raspberry, like it would send it to port 9100 on the printer. Most printers support printing to port 9100, if yours doesn't, use port 515 for LPD.

Sep 6, 2018 at 16:37 comment added RalfFriedl You could also use NAT from the Raspberry to the printer. It should be easier than Proxy Arp.

Sep 6, 2018 at 9:42 comment added Ingo @Lasse I'm also looking for this proxy arp solution and try to understand this promiscous mode issue as I wrote in my other comment. Just a moment please ...
Sep 5, 2018 at 18:02 comment added Lasse Ingo I think I will go for the Proxy Arp solution then, but I had many problems setting that up using DHCPCD, så the tutorial is based upon the old Linux way
Sep 5, 2018 at 16:34 comment added Ingo Sorry, but a bridge between the ethernet interface (eth0) and the wifi interface (wlan0) as client isn't possible. This is the issue with 4addr and WDS and that is not supported by the wifi chip on the RasPi. You can only bridge an access point with ethernet. For further information look at Raspberry Pi WiFi to Ethernet Bridge for a server?.
Sep 5, 2018 at 6:46 comment added Lasse As I wrote in the question. It is not possible to cable directly to the router, that is why I will setup the Pi as a bridge
Sep 5, 2018 at 5:59 comment added RalfFriedl A bridge is of course the easiest way, especially as you likely already have a WLAN router with LAN. Connect the printer to the router, access it over WLAN, nothing else needed.

Sep 4, 2018 at 22:11 comment added Lasse So you think I shall go for a bridge (wlan to ethernet) and then use Cups? If I use Cups and Samba will the printer then show up as a network printer on Windows 10?
