Instead of relying on the broadcast of the cups server just type in the IP address (private) of the PC running cups and then click "lookup" and you will have success. You will need to select cups-client only after you select Network Printers from the Yast Printer on the client.
Broadcast often fails to find servers per say - You will probably have the same problem establishing an NFS client where again, instead to searching for the NFS server you will need to enter the NFS servers IP (private) address Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi all, > > I have used Novell's SuSE 10.1 with CUPS as network Print Server for > Linux and Windows Clients.
