You'll want to take a look at /etc/cups/cups.conf, and the access control sections in that file. From memory there is something like this there: <Location /> Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 </Location> That should allow you to connect from localhost. You could try adding the local LAN in explicitly too: Allow from 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 (Update to your own network.) Once you do that restart cups and try again. Steve --
