[KLUG Members] Yet another Printing Problem (YaPP?), Samsung ML-1210 with CUPS

[Greg Mason]

I'm having a bit of an issue with printing. Google hasn't really  
revealed much, either. I've got 2 printers attached to a CUPS print  
server.

One printer, an HP inkjet, prints fine both from the local CUPS  
server and from remote clients (my PowerBook in this case, soon to be  
more machines once it works right). The other printer, a Samsung  
ML-1210, will print test pages from the CUPS web configuration page,  
but it won't print from remote clients.

I've got CUPS 1.2.0 installed, but I had this problem with 1.1.22 as  
well. The machine is running a customized version of CentOS called  
ClarkConnect. I foolishly thought "hey, CUPS 1.2 is out, has some  
cool new stuff, maybe it fixes this..."

 From the PowerBook, I've added the Samsung both as a "generic  
postscript printer" and with the same PPD I used on the CUPS server.  
When I send a print job to the Samsung, it starts its warmup routine,  
but just doesn't print anything. Everything is set to "Allow all" at  
least for right now (not the best security practice, I know, but i'm  
just trying to make it work)

Once I get this issue resolved, I'll attempt to get a windows machine  
to print to it with the CUPS windows driver.
