Type "system-config-printer" at a root prompt.

Then right-click on the printer that you want to look at, click on "Properties" - "Policies"

State: Enabled <check> Accepting jobs <check> Shared <check>

The Shared checkbox is what allows the other machines on the network to see that printer.

Both client and server run Centos 6.

The Centos default printer setup is cups.

All of the shared printers that are connected to the print server machine just show up by magic when I run the system-config-printer command on the client machines.

My objective is to make one of those printers disappear on some of the client machines, without making it disappear on the other client machines.
