Nothing look different in any of the above activities above except when I wanted to test print from the laptop I had two printer that I could select from. The first (HP Photosmart c4100 Series, hpcups 3.11.1) is the same printer entry I've been getting before which gives me the "Printer not Connected" message when trying to print. The second and new entry (HP Photosmart c4100 Series, hpcups 3.11.1 on 192.168.1.201) works when I print. I when through the process and added only one printer to the laptop but got two printer entries? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/780782 Title: Unable to print on local network printer -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
