I can confirm this. I messed around with the settings in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, but I couldn't fix it.Mike Walsh wrote:For some strange reason, I can't get print sharing to work at the CUPS server. Always comes up with 'Idle, Accepting jobs, Not shared'. Doesn't matter how many times I reset the server settings, and re-start, it still won't come up with 'Idle, Accepting jobs, Shared.'
IIRC, there was a discussion about modifying cupsd.conf in new versions of CUPS, but I can't find it now.
Just out of curiosity, if you go to another machine, is the printer actually NOT shared?
