OK so I'm no cups whiz, but, you may want to use the localhost access from a web browser to cups on one of your macs and get printing working on that one particular mac. Then either copy the files to the other macs or individually set up printing from each system. Over the last year, cups has seem to be a bit flaky and I just find it easier to set up printing again rather than debuging the numerous issues with cups. netprint/HPlip solves many problem with HP printers and cups. I have no idea if other software is needed to compliment cups for brands of printers that are not HP. I have no idea why the printing access stop working, but, the above suggestion should result in a fix for printing from your macs. hth, James
