I think Debian changed the default. Try looking in the /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, you should need only to uncomment the like "BrowseAddress @LOCAL" and "BrowseAllow @LOCAL" on the box where the printers are attached. Andrea P.S. last time i've checked uncommenting the line "BrowseAddress @LOCAL" didn't was enough, i added instead a line "BrowseAddress 192.168.0.255"... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
