Do you need results from the live cd? # /usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp 172.26.33.191 network socket://172.26.33.191 "HP LaserJet 4050 Series " "HP LaserJet 4050 Series " "" "" # /usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp 172.26.33.192 network socket://172.26.33.192 "Xerox WorkCentre 5638 v1 Multifunction System" "Xerox WorkCentre 5638 v1 Multifunction System" "" "machine location not set" The nw printers that I do use also don't yield much info. I have the firewall disabled, btw so it shouldn't have affected my previous response. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
