Can't print to network printer

rickenbacherus · 02-11-2004, 10:58 PM

I have an HP deskjet 3520 working rather nicely on 192.168.0.108 port 631.
on 192.168.0.108 CUPS says "device URI: usb://3520/
It's using ipp.

I can't print from networked machines. How should I tell CUPS where the printer is?
I have configured it many ways and the test page supposedly prints successfully but there's no action at the printer. Any ideas? Thanks.

OK maybe some success. The CUPS web interface found this printer on its own:

HP DeskJet 3520 Foomatic/hpijs (recommended) on 192.168.0.108
Description: HP DeskJet 3520
Location: home
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs.

When I try to print test page I get:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access the resource on this server.

So what exactly should I share or change the permissions of on 192.168.0.108?

OK I got it. It was /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. I added my network machines name in
2 places:

<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow From 192.168.0.100
</Location>

Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow From 192.168.0.100
#Encryption Required
</Location>

Restart the cupsd and voila!
