I want to forward print to a network cups server. The printers do not appear in the print menu of any GUI program. The server is known to be working with lots of pcs so the problem is most certainly on the client end.
Suppose the hostname is printserver. I can reach the server using ping printserver as well as entering printserver:631 in a browser. I have cups installed locally and running. I can reach the local cups using localhost:631.
I have created the file /etc/cups/client.conf and entered
Code:
ServerName printserver
When I enter lpstat -H on the consol I get
Code:
printserver:631
lpstat: Bad Request
lpstat -l just outputs
Code:
lpstat: Bad Request
The local cups version is 1.6.1. The server cups version is 1.3.7.
Does someone have an idea where the problem is?
