I had this problem some time back and could not get it to work on two counts. |
| 13 |
Name resolution would not work (so you may want to change lightning with the |
| 14 |
IP address of your server); and the syntax given in the gui example was |
| 15 |
wrong. So, after some good advice from this list I changed mine to: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
http://192.168.0.3:631/printers/Compaq-HP |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
where, |
| 20 |
192.168.0.3:631 is the IP address and port where the server is listening at; |
| 21 |
Compaq-HP is the name I have given to the server; |
| 22 |
printers is . . . err, . . . not sure, I assume it is the list of printers set |
| 23 |
up on the server. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Anyway, also don't forget to allow connections from your client(s) on your |
| 26 |
server and your server's firewall. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
If after setting it as suggested you still can't find your way through, please |
| 29 |
post back and I'll look deeper into it. |
