I've got two systems running CUPS and I'm having trouble gettingI run Slackware 8.1 on all my machines here. Setting up printing on the "server" was neet and simple, but setting up the client gave me all sorts of problems I hadn't encountered on previous setups. Finally I decided to give Webmin a shot and setup printing on the client machines . In the printer que (in your case) use HPLJ4M and your ip (192.168.X.X) of the server and of course a name for the printer. Give that a try and see what that does for you.
them to share a printer.
Print server:
RH7.3, printer is on parallel:/dev/lp0, called HPLJ4M, configured
as HP LaserJet 4M, Foomatic + Postscript (because that's what
it is). It works fine.
CUPS: RedHat RPM, v 1.1.14
NICs:
eth0) DSL connection
eth1) internal LAN, 192.168.x.146
I think I have CUPS listening on both NICs, port 631 (ipp, right?).
The CUPS log files confirm this.
Print client:
COL 3.1.1 WS. I have tried configuring in several ways, most
recently as ipp://192.168.x.146:631/ipp/HPLJ4M, and notice that
this URI is changed by replacing "ipp:" with "http:" in the
admin display, although my input is the default the next time
through 'modify'. It is reported as busy...
CUPS: Caldera RPM, v 1.1.10-3
NICS:
eth0) internal LAN, 192.168.x.150
Problem: I cannot find a configuration on the client that seems to
connect to the server. I see nothing in the logs about attempts,
but I may not know where to look.
The client usually reports "Printer is busy; will retry in 10
seconds". The printer is idle, and I see no print jobs on the
server.
Anybody with a clue?
