I messed around some more with mine now and found out a few more things. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
I also added the following to the cupsd.conf on the print server machine. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
# Show shared printers on the local network. |
| 44 |
Browsing On |
| 45 |
BrowseOrder allow,deny |
| 46 |
BrowseAllow 192.168.2.* |
| 47 |
BrowseAllow @LOCAL |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
# Restrict access to the server... |
| 51 |
<Location /> |
| 52 |
Order allow,deny |
| 53 |
Allow localhost |
| 54 |
Allow From 192.168.2.* |
| 55 |
</Location> |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
The 192.168.2.* is my local subnet I was trying to allow printing |
| 58 |
from. With a restart of the cups server on the machine with the |
| 59 |
printer that client machine saw the peinter no problem. |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
I also now discovered that when I use the CUPS manager on the client |
| 62 |
machine itr just forwards me to the CUPS manager on the Server |
| 63 |
machine. Since in cupsd.conf I haven't allowed a client machine |
| 64 |
access to change anything I can't change any of the parameters of the |
| 65 |
CUPS manager but I am able to print a test page. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
I also finished setting up KDE and everything is now working fine on |
| 68 |
the client with the setup I have described. Sorry about forgetting to |
| 69 |
tell you about the other two lines I changed in cupsd.conf. Hope |
| 70 |
these changes help you. |
