I'm trying to acccess individual units in my home network by their Host Name and not IP Address. But every time I try, Opera searches the internet instead of just resolving the Host Name or telling me it cannot. For example, my printer is an HP unit named- shockingly enough- HPPrinter. But every time I type that into the address bar, I get a Google search for HP Printers. [Shouting removed]

Maybe adding a slash / at the end would also work.
