Network printing trouble
Hello
I am obviously going about this the wrong way, but I'm not sure where my
error lies. A second (or third) pair of eyes would be helpful.
On box A there is an USB printer. Box B wants to use that printer. Box A
and B are both connected via a hub to a firewall that does IP masking.
Box A has CUPS as does B. Box B has "Show printers shared by other
systems" enabled on the CUPS admin page (localhost:631). Box A has "show
printers shared by other systems" disabled, and "share published
printers connected to this system" enabled. So far this is all I have
done, and this repeatedly seems to lock up the CUPS server horrendously
so that Box A can't print either.
There is evidently a step (or a series) that I am missing. Can someone
kindly review this with me so I can correct this.
TIA
Andy
