For testing CUPS you should be using the commands that come with CUPS. Have a
look at the manual that comes with cups before you end up messing up the
config files again. http://localhost:631
Firstly what is the output of
lpstat -t
on both your server and client.
Kprinter has the problem of not recognising a new IP address if it has an IP
address already set.
Check on the client machine in ~/.kde/share/config/kdeprinterrc and make sure
it has the correct IP address in it as shown below
[CUPS]
Host=<IP-Address>
(should be the same as /etc/cups/client.conf).
Don't worry if there is no setting for your server as long as it doesn't
have an invalid IP address.
