Hi John thanks for your quick reply. If it is not a bug, as I was reading on the web, it is some misunderstanding from me. Running cups 1.4.2 (CentOS6) I was using the "BrowsePoll" directive in cupsd.conf. So the printers were automatically known from the central server of the lab. And home printers were working fine with this setup too. In CentOS7, with cups 1.6.3, this directive does not exist any more and reading the doc I had understood that it was replaced by the client.conf file. Reading your answer suggest it is not true. So could you tell me or suggest reading on the right manner to reproduce my previous centos6 setup ? Sorry for this newbie question, I'm not very familiar with cups setup.
