Thanks for your responses.I was able to discover few printers which

given network.
If the printers support Rendevous then, as other have pointed out,
Rendevous is what you need to read up on.
If the printers are IP printers, but do not support Rendevous, then
there
is simply no discovery protocol available. The printer is (likely) an
lpr
printer. lpr is output only; they don't talk back.
At that point, you can only do manual "discovery" (i.e. ask the user
;-)
That would also be a good time to post your question to the printing
list. The printing engineers might be able to give you some tips from
their side of the fence.
