Hi, Michael.Heimann [2006-06-13 23:26 -0000]: > Could someone please make it "easy" ( as in "an average user can do it" > ) to share a printer with other linux machines ?!? Some sort of "right- > click on printer -> share that printer" would be perfect bliss
Dapper already has the backend for this: sudo /usr/share/cups/enable_sharing 1 and there is even a patch for gnome-cups-manager to provide an UI for it (similar to the 'Enable printer sharing' menu option); that unfortunately came too late for Dapper. However, there is a spec for it, so Edgy will make this easier. -- (breezy) Cups cannot print to browsed printer https://launchpad.net/bugs/23211 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
