This didn't work either, since when I went back to the Add Printer dialog, the printer was gone.Īny ideas? I know this should be easier. So I tried creating a 'dummy' printer in the Add Printer dialog, with a basic config, and then changing it from the CUPS web GUI. I tried creating the printer at the Add Printer dialog, but it would neither let me specify an HTTP URL (as far as I know, I had to use the IP icon on the toolbar) nor specify 'RAW'. However, I can't see the printer I just defined from other Mac OS X apps, and neither can I see it from the Add Printer Dialog on System Preferences (it's empty). I have no problems sending a test page from the CUPS web interface on Mac OS X to the Linux server - the test page gets printed OK. I set up CUPS on the client Mac via and created a printer associated with the remote queue / printer on Linux (the URL I use on OS X is and the driver is RAW). However, I can't print from a client MacBook.

I can print from the server, and from other Linux stations to that remote server. I have set up a Linux box with CUPS 1.3.9. I'm new to Mac OS X, but have been working with Linux for almost 9 yrs now.
