Not if you're printing FROM Unix/linux TO unix/linux. You want a Unix/lpd
printer.
Perhaps you need to check the file /etc/lpd.perms, which controls
which lpd services are available and to whom. near the bottom (at least
of mine, on RH7.2, using lprng--your mileage WILL vary if you're using
CUPS) is this:
# allow local job submissions only
#REJECT SERVICE=X NOT SERVER
The default setting is to have the second of those two lines NOT
commented, which prevents remote lpd systems from accessing your lpd
subsystem. The change shown here will let ANY remote lpd client talk to
your lpd server, which may or may not be what you want. I suggest you read
the (voluminous) commentary in /etc/lpd.perms to see how to restrict it to
only the subset of clients to which you wish to actually serve printing.
