Title: CUPS and Linux distributions
Post by: knut on January 04, 2005, 09:20:26 AM

I have installed the CUPS printserver on my SME box, but I dont get printing to work on Linux workstations. I have tried several, Mandrake, Suse, Ubuntu, but none of them can print to CUPS.

Any solutions?

Regards

Knut

The general idea of how to print from Linux clients to the CUPS server on your SME Server is described in http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/rvandenaker/beta/e-smith-cups/documentation/howtos/printing-to-filtering-queues.html and http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/rvandenaker/beta/e-smith-cups/documentation/howtos/printing-to-raw-queues.html, but there may be distribution-specific issues. Can you be more specific about the problems you encountered with (any of) the printing methods described in these howtos?
