Lexmark4039L is attached to a computer at 192.168.1.1. There is another server with a printer at 192.168.2.3. These 2 servers tell everyone else on the network what printers are on the network. But they don't know about each other's printers, because they can't hear the broadcasts that tell the cups servers about such things. I tried making them poll the other server. That didn't work, because they're not allowed to talk to each other, according to cupsd.conf. If I add the line allowing their polling, then everything is fine. But I don't know how to use system-config-printer to do this. So any time it is run, this setup is destroyed. I hope that makes sense.
