 |
|
Hi all.
I have an odd problem with my USB printer. It installed fine, I can see it from localhost:631 and print a test page. However, I can't do anything from the command line and the printer isn't picked up from any applications. There are no errors written to the error logs.
Any ideas anyone? Thanks.

I have found the problem. /etc/cups/client.conf contained reference to an old server. I simply changed it to the following and all works fine now.
| Code: | | ServerName localhost |
