Problem with remote printer & cups



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hallo!

I have a PC in my network with an Epson C82 usb printer connected to it.  I've 
installed cupsys, setup the printer and printed successfully a test from the 
cups web config.

But I cannot print to that printer from my laptop.  No firewall is 
installed... here's what I'm doing:

1. cupsys is also installed in my laptop (same version -unstable-).  If I run 
kprinter from the laptop (either as user or root), it shows no available 
printers, and if I try to add a remote cups server printer it also shows no 
printers after specifying the remote IP & port (default 631).

2. cups logs (set to debug) from the printer server show (192.168.0.4 is the 
laptop's IP):
access_log:
- ------
192.168.0.4 - - [12/Aug/2003:16:41:20 +0200] "POST /printers/ HTTP/1.1" 403 0
- ------
error_log:
- ------
D [12/Aug/2003:16:41:20 +0200] AcceptClient() 6 from 192.168.0.4:631.
D [12/Aug/2003:16:41:20 +0200] ReadClient() 6 POST /printers/ HTTP/1.1
D [12/Aug/2003:16:41:20 +0200] SendError() 6 code=403
- ------

3. as I won't have a printer directly connected to the laptop I've also tryed 
removing cupsys package and leaving cupsys-client (also installed).  If I do 
so after running kprinter it tryes to initialize the printing system but 
fails to get the list of available printers.
I've tryed without specifying the printer server (default option in 
client.conf) and specifying it.  No difference.

The worst is that the laptop (using debian unstable/kde 3.1.x) was printing 
through the server's cups... under Mandrake 9  8-/ ... I need it to work, 
help appreciated  ;)

TIA
