I also added the following to the cupsd.conf on the print server machine. # Show shared printers on the local network. Browsing On BrowseOrder allow,deny BrowseAllow 192.168.2.* BrowseAllow @LOCAL # Restrict access to the server... Order allow,deny Allow localhost Allow From 192.168.2.* The 192.168.2.* is my local subnet I was trying to allow printing from. With a restart of the cups server on the machine with the printer that client machine saw the peinter no problem. I also now discovered that when I use the CUPS manager on the client machine itr just forwards me to the CUPS manager on the Server machine. Since in cupsd.conf I haven't allowed a client machine access to change anything I can't change any of the parameters of the CUPS manager but I am able to print a test page. I also finished setting up KDE and everything is now working fine on the client with the setup I have described. Sorry about forgetting to tell you about the other two lines I changed in cupsd.conf. Hope these changes help you. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
