Client sends print job, but "unable to get printer
status (client -error forbidden)" of print server...
Hi, I 'm trying to get a second machine to see a print
server. Both are running FC2, I've Googled for
appropriate instructions, and looked at cups.org, but
don't find anything appropriate. I'd sure appreciate
some help. TIA.
Problem-
On sending print job, error message shows up in Print
Manager- "Unable to get printer status (client -error
forbidden)" - and printer does not respond.
However, the printer IS seen as default, but the
'Sharing' icon has a red cross through it.
Spec-
Two machines running FC2.
Box-A is router / firewall / print Server.
Box-B is Client, and sees the Internet via eth1 of
Box-A.
Details-
Server (Box-A) can independently print, to a HP812C
DeskJet.
The GUI config box indicates- Locally-connected,
/dev/lp0. In Sharing properties, "this queue is able
to be used by other computers," and "allowed hosts" is
Single IP address of client 192.168.1.10.
the Server name is recorded in /etc/hosts of Client.
I've played with this for hours, so sure would
appreciate any advice!
