Re: Cannot print from diskless-workstations

I guess the diskless workstations needs a config that says it can
use the server as printer server, and it works with the thin clients
since the print server is local.
I doubt this, as the default for a CUPS client is to see all announced
printers.

I have never seen this, but I usually just have a local CUPS client/server connected to a network printer directly.


The way CUPS work, one set up a printer on one machine, and the
existence of this printer is broadcasted on the local network.
Clients pick up these printeres automatically and show them to the
user.  So no special setup should be needed on the clients.

How does this work? Is it using SMB/Samba?
