socket programming in micrologix1400

hi!
i want to communicate micrologix1400 to printer on ethernet with socket programming so can any one help how to connect?

Not sure exactly what you are doing but... set the I/P address on the CPU would be a start, just set it up in your program communications and download to the CPU, you need to make sure that the IP address is not used by any other device
