Here's a howto that helped me: http://www.lanside.net/article.php?story=20031007161002250
Thank you, the problem now is half-solved!
Now I'm having CUPS well running, and I finished configuring my printer with the web interface.
It's an HP LaserJet 4L, its URI is lpd://x.x.x.x:515/HPLaserJ
when try to print a test page, the answer is:
"Remote host did not accept data file (32)"
tail -f /var/log/cups/error_log
..... E [02/Mar/2005:00:55:54 +0000] [Job 17] Unable to send trailing nul to printer: Broken pipe E [02/Mar/2005:00:55:54 +0000] [Job 17] Remote host did not accept data file (32) .......
I googeled but didn't find any solution to this.
Thank you in advance!
I'm certainly no expert, and in fact had to take a few swings before it started working... I remember having to try a handful of URIs. Finally settled on "lpd://hostname/queue". I defined the hostname in my /etc/hosts file and I DID NOT specify the port (515) as you have.
So my URI in CUPS administration looks like: lpd://WinMachine/WinPrintQueue
With and /etc/hosts containing: x.x.x.x WinMachine
And the print queue on the shared printer is WinPrintQueue.
Another thing...
Do you have a firewall on the Windows machine? If so you will need to allow traffic on port TCP 515. Probably not the solution but worth looking at.
