I now have the both printers set up and can print to them from FreeBSD.
Problem is, I can't print to them from the Mac.
The error is always, "Printer HP1100 is busy, trying again in 30 seconds."
I take that to mean the server isn't responding.
Is there a command I can run from the Mac that will tell me if the FreeBSD
box is accepting connections to the printers?
lpc status all
...if the Mac has the lpc command.
Might there be something I haven't enabled on FreeBSD to allow me to print
across the network?
Do you have the Mac's hostname or IP address in /etc/hosts.lpd?
Warren,
I do now, no joy.
Okay, how about an entry for the Mac in /etc/hosts? lpd wants a
resovable hostname.
I've told lpd on the FreeBSD box to use "-W" (accept connections on any
port), cause the Mac is trying to connect on port 631.
Which implies that cups is still trying to use IPP, not lpd.
