I’m looking for a way to find all devices (especially printers) in the local area network (LAN).
Is there are way to differentiate between printers and other devices (smartphones, laptops, computers, etc.)?

What if you try this? http://jmdns.sourceforge.net/
JmDNS is a Java implementation of multi-cast DNS and can be used for service registration and discovery in local area networks. JmDNS is fully compatible with Apple’s Bonjour.
