Please help. If I cannot fix this printing problem, I will have to abandon Linux for the hated world of Windoze!!!
Two weeks ago, I no longer could send a document to either printer. I've got two printers connected, both of which used to work fine. One is a Canon S600 connected to a USB port. The other is a HP LJ 6MP connected through my local network. Both worked fine previously.
Whenever I try to print from a program (e.g., Firefox), the only printer available is the PostScript default. Previously, both printers were listed, with the HP as the default printer.
When I try to print a test page, I get this error:
lpr: error - unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable
I'm running Core 3, and have done all of the updates. I downloaded and installed the latest version of CUPS (1.1.22). That did not help.
Do you have a firewall running? Try using system-config-securitylevel to add 631:tcp to the list of open ports (on the machine with the printers attached).

Please help.

Thanks Matt. We solved it earlier by changing the IP address in one of the configuration files.
