In the files /etc/cups/cupsd.conf files on the server and workstations
respectively, I have the following lines:
BrowseAllow From 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
(server)
BrowsePoll 192.168.0.2:631
(workstation)
My local network is 192.168.0.0/24 and the machine with the printer
connected is 192.168.0.2. I have yet to find a way to configure these
other than editing the config files themselves.
Hope this helps,
Joe
