and there I found a note that says:
"Note:
Due to user interface changes in Mac OS X 10.5, CUPS shared
printers will not automatically appear in the print dialog. Instead,
you must first run the following command to enable CUPS browsing on
your system:
cupsctl BrowseRemoteProtocols=cups
Then choose each of the CUPS shared printers you want to see in
the print dialog by adding them, either from the Add Printer... item
in the print dialog or from the Print & Fax preference pane in the
System Preferences window."
I don't know if that's true for your version of IOS, but
perhaps it will help.
Ted, thanks for the link
It reads as if it might be what I need.
But, much is not clear to me,
I thought the whole point of IPP Sharing was that
you didnt have to do anything on the client machines, even Macs.
Am I supposed to run
cupsctl BrowseRemoteProtocols=cups
on my f14 box Server?
or on the imac client?
I tried "cupsctl BrowseRemoteProtocols=cups" on my f14
no change, still cant see the printer from my imac
I also don't understand
" then choose each of the CUPS shared printers you want to see in
the print dialog by adding them, either from the Add Printer... item
in the print dialog or from the Print & Fax preference pane in the
System Preferences window"
is this meant to be done on my f14 server? or the imac client?
On my f14 I don't see a " Print & Fax preference pane in the
System Preferences window"
If it means choosing from the imac print dialog,
it seems impossible
because my entire problem is my imac cant see the printer to choose it.
I haven't felt this dumb re linux in a long time.
