Client sends print job, but "unable to get printer status (client -error forbidden)" of print server... Hi, I 'm trying to get a second machine to see a print server. Both are running FC2, I've Googled for appropriate instructions, and looked at cups.org, but don't find anything appropriate. I'd sure appreciate some help. TIA. Problem- On sending print job, error message shows up in Print Manager- "Unable to get printer status (client -error forbidden)" - and printer does not respond. However, the printer IS seen as default, but the 'Sharing' icon has a red cross through it. Spec- Two machines running FC2. Box-A is router / firewall / print Server. Box-B is Client, and sees the Internet via eth1 of Box-A. Details- Server (Box-A) can independently print, to a HP812C DeskJet. The GUI config box indicates- Locally-connected, /dev/lp0. In Sharing properties, "this queue is able to be used by other computers," and "allowed hosts" is Single IP address of client 192.168.1.10. the Server name is recorded in /etc/hosts of Client. I've played with this for hours, so sure would appreciate any advice! tia Kate Below is the cupsd.conf from Server (Box-A) ## # End of "$Id: cupsd.conf.in,v 1.13 2003/04/10 20:14:04 mike Exp $". # <Location /printers/lp0> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 AuthType None </Location> <Location /printers/printer> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 AuthType None </Location> # Lines below are automatically generated - DO NOT EDIT <Location /printers/HP812C> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 AuthType None Allow from 192.168.1.10 </Location> <Location /> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 </Location> Browsing On BrowseProtocols cups BrowseOrder Deny,Allow BrowseAllow from @LOCAL This is the cupsd.conf from the Client Box-B ### # End of "$Id: cupsd.conf.in,v 1.13 2003/04/10 20:14:04 mike Exp $". # <Location /printers/lp0> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 AuthType None </Location> <Location /printers/hp812c> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 AuthType None Allow from 192.168.1.10 </Location> # Lines below are automatically generated - DO NOT EDIT <Location /printers/HP812C-blue> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 AuthType None </Location> <Location /> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 </Location> Browsing On BrowseProtocols cups BrowseOrder Deny,Allow BrowseAllow from @LOCAL Listen 127.0.0.1:631 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
