I have to install hplip on each machine that wants to access it, but after that it works perfectly. I can scan either from the hp tool or from applications that support scanning. The only thing I had to do was find out what address the printer was using. On some boxes the utility could find it, but on others I had to give it the IP - I suspect that this depends on the version installed by the distro. However, once I'd done that, it worked perfectly. > I did have it working on this slack-12.2 install before I added a > client.conf to /etc/cups to point the machine at the server so I could > check out an hp-930c to make sure it was functional. > > It worked well enough for what I wanted to do with thay printer but I never > set up the psc-2355 which would have allowed me to scan on one box only and > in any case I have always prefered an integrated desktop which to me means > kde-aps on a kde desktop Your choice, of course.
