[wellylug] CUPS

[Lindsay Hunter]

Yes, it works with the Windows XP/2K on the LAN.  And it worked with Red 
Hat 9.  There are four PC's on the LAN, 2 XP and 2 Centos 4.  The Centos 
4 PCs can access the print server by http to see the job list etc.  Is 
there another message type that my firewall blocks?  Set to use smb, and 
test page requested, it says

Description: HP Laser Jet 1200 series
Location: Ps241da3 printer server
Printer State: processing, accepting jobs.
/"Printing page 1, 3% complete..."/
Device URI: socket://192.168.27.35:9101

which suggests it is sending, but the printer is not warming up.  If 
there is a confirmatory message from the printer to confirm the job, it 
may not be getting through.  Error codes 404 suggests it cannot find the 
server page.  Send error: 6 I cannot interpret.  I cannot find the error 
code list?  The favicon reference is for an icon on the browser and 
means only that it cannot find that either?

Checking the manual for the server again, it suggests that the right 
syntax for http is http://<ip address>/lp2.  ANd it works!  That seems 
different to the CUPS suggestion of

http://hostname:631/ipp/port1.  I guess it was an early implementation of ipp?  Thanks for your help.  I learnt something!   :-)   RTFM!
