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 ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
