Public bug reported: Binary package hint: cups
I have 2 Ubuntu Maverick laptops. Laptop-1 has a Samsung printer connected through USB. Laptop-1 allows sharing of this printer. On Laptop-2 I can ping my other laptop using its name: $ ping Laptop-1.local PING Laptop-1.local (192.168.1.37) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from Laptop-1.local (192.168.1.37): icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=65.1 ms So avahi seems to work correctly on both machines. However, I can't print to the Samsung printer using this URI: ipp://Laptop-1.local:631/printers/Samsung-CLX-216x-Series CUPS doesn't seem to find the printer. Using the IP address work perfectly: ipp://192.168.1.37:631/printers/Samsung-CLX-216x-Series cupsd is linked to avahi libraries so it is maybe a configuration problem on my side: $ ldd /usr/sbin/cupsd | grep avahi libavahi-common.so.3 => /usr/lib/libavahi-common.so.3 (0x00007faeedc1f000) libavahi-client.so.3 => /usr/lib/libavahi-client.so.3 (0x00007faeeda0f000) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: cups 1.4.4-6ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-22.33-generic 2.6.35.4 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-22-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: amd64 CheckboxSubmission: 0085e529b142d05db3fd806c5a9bed9b CheckboxSystem: 2563af6e36b037fc362c650378170735 Date: Sun Oct 3 20:59:43 2010 EcryptfsInUse: Yes Lpstat: device for CLX-2160: ipp://192.168.1.37:631/printers/Samsung-CLX-216x-Series device for CLX-2160-USB: usb://Samsung/CLX-216x%20Series device for color-LaserJet-4600: socket://172.25.140.54 device for HP-LaserJet-4100: socket://ovaron.rezh.ch:9100 device for HP-LaserJet-4100-MFP: ///dev/null MachineType: LENOVO 7663Y2F Papersize: a4 PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card PpdFiles: HP-LaserJet-4100: HP LaserJet 4100 Series v.3010.107 Postscript (recommended) CLX-2160-USB: Samsung CLX-2160 Foomatic/foo2qpdl (recommended) color-LaserJet-4600: HP Color LaserJet 4600 v3010.107 Postscript (recommended) CLX-2160: Samsung CLX-2160 Foomatic/foo2qpdl (recommended) ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic root=UUID=8077df6b-eb0e-40ff-9a4e-acbf5205d4a7 ro bootchart=svg quiet splash ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: cups dmi.bios.date: 05/11/2009 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 7LETC6WW (2.26 ) dmi.board.name: 7663Y2F dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Available dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Not Available dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr7LETC6WW(2.26):bd05/11/2009:svnLENOVO:pn7663Y2F:pvrThinkPadT61:rvnLENOVO:rn7663Y2F:rvrNotAvailable:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNotAvailable: dmi.product.name: 7663Y2F dmi.product.version: ThinkPad T61 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO ** Affects: cups (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug maverick -- Unable to connect to remote printer using computer name https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654238 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
