Can print from network, but not from localhost

willy9 · 2010-12-31 23:42:03

Hi all, I have a strange printing situation:

My printer is connected via USB to my desktop PC. I can print from a laptop connected on the network, but not from the desktop. I'm not sure where this could come from. Any idea ? I attach my /etc/cups.d/cupsd.conf and /etc/hosts files if there is something wrong in one of these:

/etc/cups.d/cupsd.conf

Any idea ?

Did you go through the usb printer troubleshooting section in the CUPS wiki entry?

Sorry for not replying earlier, I must have looked the notification email...

Anyway, thanks for the hint, I started again the configuration from scratch, and found out that I needed indeed to blacklist the usblp module, as mentionned in the wiki.

Everything seems to working now, thanks
