The reason CUPS is rejecting this is that the correct network address is: 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 and not 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0 CUPS-1.1.x would correct this for you, but CUPS-1.2 no longer does. But this line in cupsd.conf gets written by system-config-printer (it copies what you enter in the 'Sharing' dialog). If you run, as root: /usr/sbin/printconf-backend --force-rebuild /sbin/service cups restart you will probably find that the incorrect network address is back again. To test out the correct fix, please fetch these packages: http://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/cups-fc5/i386/system-config-printer-0.6.151.7-1.i386.rpm http://people.redhat.com/twaugh/tmp/cups-fc5/i386/system-config-printer-gui-0.6.151.7-1.i386.rpm and install them with 'rpm -Fvh system-config-printer*-0.6.151.7-1*'. Then restart cups: '/sbin/service cups restart' and things should work fine. Let me know whether this works for you! Thanks, Tim. */
