Ciao Antonio
Do you use cups on your Printer Server? To find out, take a browser and
enter the URL http://your.printer.server:631.
If bloudy firewall stays in between, open port 631
If you get a page on the above URL, then printing on your client is as
easy as:
on your client host, edit the file /etc/cups/client.conf and enter a
line like
ServerName your.printer.server
If that file does not exist, create it and enter the line above. If the
/etc/cups directory does not exist, create it and put the above file
therein.
After having created/edited this file, check to see which printers are
available:
In a terminal window enter the following command:
lpstat -p
and start printing on them.

If you use system-config-printer, or its troubleshooter, you might find
what's up.
My guess is that firewalld is preventing CUPS Browse packets from being
received.

yes, but as I am new to firewalld, what shall I do in order to share
printer.I don't see any cups service to let open
A point is: is sharing in Fedora easy for a standard user??? because we
are loosing the point of usability in my opinion, unless you disable
firewalld on all your networked computer
I am working as a newbie user, so I added the printer locally and it
works: from another networked computer I tried to add but it is not seen
remotely.
I think that a standard user has not to know if it is shared by cups or
any other devil tools, he expects to see on the list of shareable
printers, that's all. Please note that it was like this in F17, I don't
see why I lost my printer remotely in F17. And I think that we should
think also about easiness of use.
