I read your posts and it sound to me, you try to connect to the printers |
| 22 |
instead of your spoolserver. |
| 23 |
You say you configured both printers on one server with CUPS-Webpage. I |
| 24 |
assume this works and you can print a testpage with the Webpage. |
| 25 |
Then you wrote "ServerName yourserver" in /etc/cups/client.conf . You |
| 26 |
can now choose both printers in the applicationspecific printmenus, right? |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
If this is the case and it still does not work, please provide some |
| 29 |
logentries. |

As one who uses linux for 15 years you should know that cups != linux. |
