Hi all, I have used Novell's SuSE 10.1 with CUPS as network Print Server for Linux and Windows Clients. I've had to use SAMBA and then share a SMB printer for all the clients, even for the Linux boxes.
With the SUSE 10.0/10.1 printmgr program, I could scan the network for all network printers, but not see the broadcasting CUPS servers. YaST's hardware tool for Printers behaves the same way. Is there a quick and simple procedure to set up a OpenSUSE 10.2 CUPS print server and get a OpenSUSE 10.2 workstation get the CUPS printer on the CUPS Server? Other Network Printers, like HP-JetDirect, are easily connected with socket://<IP>:9100. Thew CUPS Server has the following: alc1100 (Default Printer) Description: EPSON AL-C1100 Location: USB printer on //EPSON/AL-C1100 Make and Model: EPSON AL-C1100, ESC/PageS Filter Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published. Device URI: usb://EPSON/AL-C1100 How should a CUPS Printer on a workstation be configured, that prints to the OpenSUSE 10.2 CUPS Server? As a SMB Printer it is easily done on the OpenSUSE 10.2 workstation machine with YaST's hardware tool. YaST's Printer Configuration on the OpenSUSE 10.2 workstation for a SMB Printer on the CUPS Server above: Epson AL-C1100 / alc1100 Shared Connected As samba://<user:passwd@<domain>/<cupsserver>/alc1100 With Spool alc1100 What is the procedure for printing from one OpenSuse 10.2 workplace to the OpenSUSE 10.2 CUPS Server without SAMBA? I'v tried YaST's hardware tool and used "Network Printers" - "Print via CUPS Network Server", but it does not find the CUPS Server. :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
