-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, anybody, earlier this year, I set up FreeBSD 10 on a HP-thinclient on USB-Memory and CUPS used to work for me well enough initially as printserver. Until, the dependency to dbus was intoduced. Since then a lot of updates, even reinstallations of CUPS-components and dbus happened, it took some time, until I realized, that dbus actually has to be enabled in /etc/rc.conf with the following entry: dbus_enable="YES" But this was not sufficient, since then I have been trying occasionally to make CUPS work again as printserver, but I did not succeed with this yet. Shared printers are not discovered by my Debian-hosts anymore. I attach cupsd.conf.gz, but I think this is not due to misconfiguration, but might actualy be a bug. When I use my Debian-notebook as printserver (this also still has a parallel-port), there has to be done no configuration at all, only enable this with cupsctl: _remote_admin=1 _remote_any=1 _share_printers=1 and stuff works without any further configuration thanks to systemd, but this is not the case with FreeBSD. Today I made one last final attempt, using the lpadmin command, according to CUPS online-help, section 'Getting-Started/Printer-Sharing': > Next, tag each printer that you want to share using the lpadmin(8) command on the > server, for example: > > lpadmin -p printer -o printer-is-shared=true But this does not work either, lpinfo does not show any information at all, so I ask now. Help, please. Currently I can only print testpages from the web-interface, directly on the server. I have an HP-LaserJet5, it was also set up correctly, using the generic PCL5-driver.
