I have one printer and 3 Linux boxes on my home network.
I have been using Google to try to find out how I can let all 3 Linux boxes use
this one printer. The printer is an HP-PSC-1410 and it works fine on this computer.
Can anyone point me in the direction to find the info for this?
I am pretty sure it can be done but I don't see where to look.
I am running VidaLinux 1.3.0.1 (actually a version of Gentoo) but I also have
Slack 11 installed and I don't really care which Linux I use to do the printing.
All three boxes have these Linux versions.
I used localhost:631 to set up the printer.

I have a similar setup, and the two printers I have connected to two
different Linux boxes are automagically detected by CUPS in each of my
five Linux boxes overall. I think it is just a matter of setting the
Browsing option to On in your cupsd.conf files; but, I believe that option
is on by default.
