Kubuntu share printer


Hi,
I am trying to share the printer connected to my desktop (Running Kubuntu Breezy) with other computers on my LAN (1 Ubuntu, 2 Macs). Printing to the printer from my desktop works properly, but it won't accept print jobs from the network. My firewall on the desktop is allowing port 631, and I am using CUPS. Does anyone know how to fix this problem??

Thanks in Advance
--Ian

Here are the uncommented lines from cupsd.conf
Code:
ConfigFilePerm 0600

DefaultCharset notused

LogLevel info

Printcap /var/run/cups/printcap

RunAsUser Yes

Listen 127.0.0.1:631

HostNameLookups On

Include cupsd-browsing.conf

BrowseAddress @LOCAL

<Location />

Try changing Listen 127.0.0.1 to Listen *:631.

Make sure your other systems have Browsing On.

Hope this helps!
