For many years, now, I've run a CUPS server on my LAN, that any distro of Linux I've switched on has managed to find the printers it publishes, without me having to do any client configuration on the PC, other than making sure the firewall isn't in the way. The CUPS server advertises itself, the clients find it, automatically, and when I want to print something, there's a list of available printers that I can print to. This is how it's supposed to work. Fedora 20, however, finds nothing. I don't want to have to go around configuring all the clients, and all the user accounts on each of the clients. That's a really dumb way of doing things, something that CUPS and Linux used to manage to avoid. Nor do I want to play silly buggers with Avahi. None of the printers are UPnP/zeroconf thingummies, nor the print server. What is wrong with the Fedora 20 CUPS client? -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.14.3-200.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Tue May 6 19:23:18 UTC 2014 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists. George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
