I'm looking for suggestions or ideas to help me access a remote printer.
The printer is on a Fedora Core 3 machine. It is shared. For "debugging" purposes I have totally disabled any firewalling on the machine. I can print without problem from the machine to which the printer is attached.
The "remote" machine is on the same network. It's a wireless connection. The remote machine can "see" the remote printer. If I do an "lpstat -t" it reports that the queue is accepting requests and that the printer is enable. BUT, it also reports that the remote machine (not the printer) is busy. Here is the output from an lpstat -t:
scheduler is running
system default destination: ml-1430-5
device for ml-1430-5: ipp://chastain:631/printers/ml-1430-5 <ipp://chastain:631/printers/ml-1430-5>
ml-1430-5 accepting requests since Jan 01 00:00
printer ml-1430-5 is idle. enabled since Jan 01 00:00
Network host 'chastain' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds...

Any pointers or guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks...Terry
