Try angry ip scanner
Put your network range
This will scan the whole network and show the hosts
When you see your printer in the list
Select it this will query the host and indicate which ports are open
There the ones id open on firewall so it can talk to the printer through
them ports
Or nmap will do this :)
Cam server either zoneminder goes on the raspian or snappy and install cam
server snap ;)
Zoneminder has so good walk throughs fir debian and this will take usb and
ip cameras ;)
