Re: remote printing with cups




Hello,

Make sure that your setting is looking something like like,

server setting (where printer is installed)


file : /etc/cups/cupsd.conf


<Location />

# Allow remote administration...

Order allow,deny

Allow @LOCAL

Allow 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0

Allow from 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0

</Location>


Listen 127.0.0.1:631

Listen 192.168.1.8:631


client setting: (from where we have to make print)


file : /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

# Show shared printers on the local network.
BrowsePoll 192.168.1.8:631

---------------------------------------------------
replace I.P/subnet setting with your network settings, according to which
class of I.P address you are using.
Replace 192.168.1.8 with your printserver ip address.

Restart the cups service on both server and client computer after doing
that.

$ sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart

Reply me if it works or having any problem. well, I am working with this
configuration right now.

Thanks and regards

Hi
I'm trying to use cups for remote printing, both machines are on the
same subnet, the machine used as a cups server
has published the printer and is seen by the other machine.
Using Firestarter port 631 is open for both tcp & udp, but the print
request is beig refused.
Are there any futher security layers in Ubuntu 8.04 that need to be
changed.
TIA
Richard
