I've taken your advice and have been working with Cups at
<http://localhost:631>. We have 2 computers at home both connected to a
Netgear Prosafe VPN Firewall/Router, model FVS-318. Just recently changed
from SuSE 9.2 to FC3 on both boxes. Love FC3!! The admin program in the
router tells me I've got box #1 with an IP of 192.168.0.2 and box #2 with an
IP of 192.168.0.3.
On box #1 (which is where the HP usb printer is attached) should I set up the
printer as an IPP(http), IPP(ipp), Hal, or as a local USB printer? After set
up in Cups, I can turn on 'sharing' in the gnome printconf gui correct? Once
sharing is on, do I only share it with 192.168.0.3?
On box #2 same questions, ipp(http), ipp(ipp)? Those options require a device
URL name. I realize it depends on the answer to the previous question but am
I close with this:
Device URI: http://192.168.0.2:631/ipp/631
Do I need the queue appended to that URI? The queue on the server
is /printer/deskjet-5550.
I keep getting messages on the client saying the network host 192.168.0.2 is
busy. What have I screwed up besides everything? Thank you!!!
