You can use individual IP addresses -- Mine is 130.108.229.31 130.108.229.32
You can also use something like 130.108.229 to indicate that an entire subnet has access. The general format is something similar, but not identical to hosts.allow/hosts.deny. Other than that, there really isn't all that much. Be sure and restart lpd after editing this file... In /etc/init.d do a ./lpd restart Without doing this, your changes will not take effect until the machine is rebooted.
