Re: Fedora 15 Network Printer Problems

Much easier, use the following command from the command line

cupsctl --share-printers --remote-any
See: http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.5/sharing.html

Perhaps you could try opening a browser window on the laptop and

I thought the same thing and tried, but the web page is not available.

cups is normally configured to listen just on localhost (that is, NOT
through network connections). From /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, you need to
change this line:

Listen localhost:631

to:

Listen localhost:631
Listen 192.168.2.3:631

You probably need to mess with this too, in the same file:

# Restrict access to the server...
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow localhost
</Location>
