Perhaps you had experimented with the 'Server settings' checkboxes in either the system-config-printer tool or the CUPS web interface after making the changes to cupsd.conf? Nothing else in FC-6 ought to be making any changes to that file at all. > Is there a proper "fedora-way" to tell cups to allow for network > printing? As in another reply: select 'Share published printers' in the server settings screen, and select 'Shared' for each printer you want to publish. (That checkbox ought to read 'Published' actually..) > Is there a reason why my changes to cupsd.conf are getting replaced? In FC-6 cupsd.conf should only be modified as a result of you changing the 'Server Settings' checkboxes, either in system-config-printer or in the CUPS web interface. Tim. */
