Hello! I am running SuSE 9.0 Professional and have run into a small snag. I am trying to print from a Win2k laptop and although the Samba and CUPS seem to be set up correctly, no printing is getting out of the server. I can "see" the printer from the network and Windows "says" the job is sent to the printer. I can see packets getting to the SuSE box, yet nothing prints. Am I missing something? Printing works very well locally. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Samba is configured correctly, as I am able to attach to my home directory.

Check in your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and look in this section.
Code:
<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.0.0/24
</Location>
And make sure that you are allowing the traffic from your local network.
Thanks! I have this in my cupsd.conf

I think this accomlpishes the same thing. I also tried the exact configuration you listed. No luck.
Thanks!
