I have my main machine running Centos 5.6, and it has a HP Deskjet 810c printer physically attached to it. CUPSD broadcasts in on my LAN as the default printer. I can print to the default HP printer over the LAN, from a laptop running Centos 5.6.
However, I do have problems trying to print to this same printer over the LAN, from a laptop running M$ Vista.
Has anyone been able to print from a machine running M$ Windoze Vista to their CUPS LAN printer running on Centos 5.x please. All I need to know is yes, this works, or no it's not possible.
<snip> Dunno 'bout 5.6, but 5.4, 5.5, sure. We had people doing that.
Thanks Mark - that's all I need to know.
If it works for 5.4/5 there's not reason for it not to work on 5.6
Now I know it's possible to do, I will spend time on reading the documentation and seeking a solution myself.
I'm not looking to be spoon fed three times daily - LOL!
