A Linksys router was connected to the DSL modem. Using
that, a Xerox Phaser 860 printer successfully prints when
configured using a IP port. When connected through the
MN700, the IP addressed printer shows in the Network
Devices with the correct IP address but does not allow
printing to the printer.

The printer can even be accessed using an HTTP call
through IE. Any clues as to where to change settings to
allow printing to the printer through an IP address?

Are you saying you are using two residential grade routers?

If that is the case you need to stop doing this as you should only run
one router.

Otherwise I think this is way off topic for this newsgroup since it
really is a file & printer sharing issue which as a part of the OS so
not a hardware issue most likely.
