 On my f14 I ran  'system-config-firewall' and checked the  IPP box,
 Network Printing Server (IPP)

as I responded to emilio, I am now stuck on 'paused printing'.
I guess this is better than 'busy'............

 uhh, my iMac is the client trying to print to a printer on the f14 server.
 So my iMac doesnt have network printing clients, the iMac is the client.
 Are you  saying that in this case
 my iMac needs 'firewall opened to allow network printing clients'?

 My previous rececent experience [on my older version of
f14(preupgrade from f12)]
 says I _do_ need to do some configuring of CUPS on the iMac:
 (shown to me by Ted Roche on this list):
 need on iMac for 'cupsctl BrowseRemoteProtocols=cups';
 without that, the iMac then couldn't even see the f14 printer.



thanks for your response
