With ease I suspect.....

I hadn't a printer configured on an F11 system.  I've got the following
bits....

F11  at  192.168.40.129
HP PSC 2510 at 192.168.0.10

I can ping the HP from the F11.

On the F11 brought up FF and went to http://localhost:631 and went
through the dialog to add a printer.  I then printed a test page and
then printed a page from FF and then printed a page from TBird.

Got all of this going in less than 5 minutes, I think....

FWIW, my client.conf file is totally empty.  Not even sure what that is
used for...maybe I'll check it out.
