10.3: Print to a remote CUPS server
Authored by: oik on Feb 08, '04 01:47:32PM

I had trouble adding my Linux server's printer to OS X via the Printer Setup Utility. It would always say "Incomplete or invalid address", even though I knew the IPP URL worked fine (my roommate's Win XP machine added and printed to the same URL quite well). I went to the CUPS web admin interface on the OS X box and added a new printer with the same URL and it works fine.

I didn't have to set "raw" on either box, but I may try that since printing takes a few minutes to spool the test page. But then again, I may not bother with it since the printer shows up fine in the Print Setup Utility's Printer List.
