When you setup the port you enter the printers IP address, there is no default.

you get 2 address on 1 computer that has windows 7 with xp mode. windows 7 gets an address, which with mine, it gets my network, which is 10.x.xx.xxx. when you go into xp mode, if you do a ipconfig, you will get a network of 192.168.xx.xxx. so i cannot ping my 10 network, so i cannot install the printer. i am trying to find a way to do it. i tried to install using \\tsclient\10.x.xx.xxx, but didn't work, the only thing i didn't try is doing it that way and mapping to the mac of the printer. The way windows 7 sees xp mode is mapping via \\tsclient.
