A Windows xp client did this following your steps wanting to use my
Debian cups server's hp deskjet printer. And then he printed one
webpage as a test. The printer did nothing :(
But the log in the cups seems ok. Here it is:
=====
192.168.4.94 - - [05/Jan/2007:20:00:39 +0800] "POST /printers/HP3740
HTTP/1.1" 200 308469 Print-Job successful-ok

I remembered the xp client using a "Deskjet Printer" as its driver
when it "add a printer" because no that specific driver supplied in
the Windows xp. Is this the reason ?
2007/1/6, Roberto C. Sanchez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Start -> Settings -> Printers and Faxes -> Add Printer
Click "Next"
Select "network printer" and click "next"
Select "connect to a printer on the Internet"
type in the URL: ipp://name-or-ip-of-server/printername
Click "Next"
I am not certain from there since my network doesn't have any CUPS
machines serving up printers. If the ipp:// URL doesn't work, try
http://name-or-ip-of-server:631/printername (note the added port
specification) instead.
