On the computer that the printer is directly plugged into, that computer is configured as the printer server. It does the driving for the printer, and makes itself available to the network. The clients should automatically find the server, without you doing anything, at all, to the CUPS configuration on the client. And it'll make that printer available to any program that wants to print. Theoretically, all you need to do to get it to work is: 1. Set up the server so that it can do its own printing (get the right printer driver, test print through CUPS, test print through any program that prints its output). Then configure its CUPS server to share itself to the LAN. 2. Set up the server's firewall so that it can act as a CUPS *server* (probably called IPP, for internet printing protocol, in your firewall configuration). 3. Set up your client's firewall so they can be a CUPS *client* (again, it may be called IPP). I don't know if, since the last time I set up network printing, there's any options that need setting with SELinux configuration, as well. There didn't used to be. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
