You will have to first configure the DI-704P's printer port name. (On a
D-Link DP-300U, I configured a port for the Canon S9100 as just S9100).
Then I setup CUPS to print to a LPD/LPR Host or Printer port. Then enter
the 192.168.0.1 for IP address and S9100 for the port. And that's pretty
much it. (I use this method at work to print to the office printers
which are connected to this print server with (3) printers attached to
it, and directly to a Ricoh CL7000 Photocopier/Printer using the same
method)

Hope this helps.
