Your version may differ slightly. From the home page, follow the "Using Network Printers" link (http://localhost:631/help/network.html), follow the link on the right panel labeled "Printer Sharing" (http://localhost:631/help/sharing.html?TOPIC=Getting+Started&QUERY=) and "Automatic Configuration using CUP Browsing" (http://localhost:631/help/sharing.html?TOPIC=Getting+Started&QUERY=#AUTO_CUPS) and there I found a note that says: "Note: Due to user interface changes in Mac OS X 10.5, CUPS shared printers will not automatically appear in the print dialog. Instead, you must first run the following command to enable CUPS browsing on your system: cupsctl BrowseRemoteProtocols=cups Then choose each of the CUPS shared printers you want to see in the print dialog by adding them, either from the Add Printer... item in the print dialog or from the Print & Fax preference pane in the System Preferences window." I don't know if that's true for your version of IOS, but perhaps it will help. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com -- 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
