Fixed. Download KUPS 1.1-5mdk from the Cooker and scan your network
again.

[Cooker] CUPS problems, KUPS problems, and well done

[Vincent Meyer]

Hello,

OK, The WWW Cups tool is broken again - trying to add a printer
get a message from Netscape about broken pipe.  This doesn't happen all
the time, but when it does I have to exit Netscape and re-start it.  Very
intermittent.

KUPS works great, but has a SMALL bug.  When adding a SMB
printer who's share has a space in it, it's not seen by the "scan network"
function.  Clicking on the computer says that there is no printer.  If you
add the printer anyway, it works fine.  Adding printers who have a share
name without a space works great.

The print driver for the Xerox M750 works pretty well, with the
things I've used it with so far.

But I may not check that nobody runs cups on his own computer!
It should be possible to tell my cups server: PLEASE DO NOT BROWSE OTHER CUPS!
Any suggestion?  :o|

Maybe not run a cups daemon on every computer, but only on some dedicated
ones ?

[Cooker] Cups problems...

[Claudio]

Hi all!
I'm building a cups-server for my department at the university.
Since there are many computer using cups, I still cannot avoid that in the 
server's printer list would not appears all of the printers many many times. 
In other words, I wish that all the client would see ONLY the queues that I 
define on my server, but my server automatically browse the whole network for 
other cups server and... I see the same printers 20 times, for example

hp4000
hp4000@pc1
hp4000@pcn

that's not very nice!  :-(
Is there a way to avoid that behaviour?

[Cooker] cups problems

[bopfer]

I have a cooker system runing with cups, but I can get printing working
from the windows machines via samba.  It goes into the queue on the
windows machine than disappears as if it was sent to the printer, but
nothing happens.  Anyone know how to get it working?  it prints fine
from the linux machine, btw.
