It turned out to be this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ltsp/+bug/948372
I ran "sudo cupsctl --share-printers" and the printer magically
appeared on the clients.
Thanks!

Looking at the LTSP code, it seems to be default for LTSP to configure
CUPS for remote printing, but only if LOCAL_APPS=True... so I'm not
sure if that applies to fat clients.
Seems like LTSP accomplishes it by editing /etc/cups/client.conf on the
client.

All CUPS (common unix printing system) configuration is stored in the
/etc/cups/ directory. There are the config files you want.
Wouldn't it be easier though to just configure CUPS on the server
correctly. and make the client's use the CUPS service on the server for

I can indeed install cups in the client image. How and where do I set
up the printer, given that I can't actually *run* the client image

root as the user name and your admin password needed.

libre word, without any extra work.
At a school I installed cups server in the image.

now I can't print from the clients. Users can't even set up the
printer, because the printer configuration tool returns an error:

The service 'Printer Configuration' does not provide an interface
