Okay, after playing around a little bit for a while i still gotta come and ask
here. I got my printer setup on my suse 10.1 server system and i can print
just fine with my Suse 10.2 client but not with the Windows client(s). In
Windows i can browse for the printer and it shows it up nicely.
Double click tells me that it'll download the driver to the system but then it
still can't find it and i will need to install it manually.
Anyways, once done this, i can nicely add it to my windows printer(s) but when
i try to print something it tells me "Access denied, unable to connect".
I'm not reallly sure what's wrong since i can print from my suse 10.2 client
just fine. Can anyone help me? This would be appreciated!
Thanks tons!
Except for older versions of Windows, you shouldn't have to download
anything. Just configure to use http or ipp printing.
Well it does want a driver, and that is reasonable. I for my part
prefer the CUPS Postscript one available somewhere at the cups site;
a package that does both b/w and color is at [2]

I have never had to download a driver, postscript or other, to talk to
CUPS. I simply configure CUPS for the printer and then point the
Windows computer at the CUPS server. However, you may need a printer
driver for Windows, if the printer is not already supported. But then
you'd need that, even if directly connected to the printer.
