As I understand a real server work around requires different software versions (older cups or newer libdns?).
A manual work around would involve placing .service files for each printer in the /etc/avahi/services/ folder. It seems challenging to write the content of the file though. There are few working examples on the net. This post may get someone started: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/avahi/2007-April/001039.html anyone with more insight, please let me know. Or if you are really a guru in this area, would it be possible to write a script that generates the .service files? last idea, but I haven't tried it: netatalk can broadcast printers using apple talk protocol. But I am not sure if that is still enabled by default on the new macs. 2010/6/10 Thawn <webmas...@korten-privat.de>: > Matt: Sorry, I misunderstood. > Zerocool: I have to disagree, following the steps in my comments #3 and #6 > fixes the issue for mac clients (it has done so for me and several other > users).
