Hi, Linda, thanks for your response. The printer is actually a network printer. I was trying to install CUPS on a linux box so that it can function as a print server. The problems I faced were as follows
1. after adding the printer to the server (which looked like a piece of cake) I was getting an error saying that the machine is forbidden from sending print jobs to the server. After rectifying this error I got error 2. 2. When I click on the "print test page" icon, the job gets submitted. but after a few sec, it is cancelled. If i try to resubmit the job it gives me the error "client-error-not-possible". I got both the errors when I was trying to print the test page. I really appreciate if you could give some advice, Thanks, Rahul.
