Hi all,
Any pointers on how to enable network printing on a Mac (recent Mac OS X
10.6/10.5) via CUPS? We do this on our Linux workstations by modifying
the CUPS configuration file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and adding in the
following two lines:
BrowsePoll <printserver1>
BrowsePoll <printserver2>
All our Macs have supported network browsing by default. Do you have
multiple subnets that prevent browsing? Here's what I think is the
relevant portion of cupsd.conf:
# Show shared printers on the local network.
Browsing On
BrowseOrder allow,deny
BrowseAllow all
BrowseLocalProtocols CUPS dnssd
I'll note that I've had trouble with the Mac firewall utility and
printer operation -- but that's an observation without a good
diagnosis or solution. :-/
