Re: Printing problem



amd64 both systems
OS: Daily updated Linux Stretch

After 5 hours of googling, countless unnecessary rebooting
I still can only print from thin client
,
Not from PC (Only pdf and postscript from files using lpr)
Both macines are running debian stretch updated daily
No complaints from CUPS, but their drivers don't show up
Both are running amd64
