if you set it to broadcast, you won't have to set up the other linux boxes...

HA!!! I just set up windows to print to cups direct (no samba) and may
be able to offer some insights.

to allow connection to the printer from your 192.168.0.0 network edit
/etc/cups/cupsd.conf to include the following:

<Location /printers>
#
# You may wish to limit access to printers and classes, either with Allow
# and Deny lines, or by requiring a username and password.

Order Deny,Allow
Allow 192.168.0.*

#
</Location>


If you just want to allow access to one particular printer you can make
it:

<Location /printers/printername>

Order Deny,Allow
Allow 192.168.0.*

</Location>

Setting it up from another linux machine I am unsure on, but the url to
print to is:

http://printerserver:631/printers/printername

How do I share a printer between several Linux Desktops and a Linux
Server without using samba?

My server already has the printer installed locally and working
correctly with CUPS.

I need to know
A) Text configuration to enable sharing to the 192.168.0.0 network
B) Text configuration for clients to print to 192.168.0.86 by default
using CUPS in Gnome

I honestly spent a good portion of time searching for an answer, but
everything I could find to deal with CUPS + SAMBA + Windows, and also
one page explaining CUPS sharing + Linux using a GUI in Fedora (not a
standard Gnome GUI).

Thanks in advance for any help on the matter!
