Thank you for working on this bug report, I appreciate it. I have been testing my printserver again, running Dapper on both server and client:
Scenario 1: 1. Added line "ServerName <IP to printserver>" into client.conf of the non-server PC. 2. Try to print a page from Firefox without blocking port 631 on server. Result: OK. 3. Port 631 of printserver blocked. 4. Starts sudo gnome-cups-manager in terminal. Result: Nothing starts. Error message after about 5-10 minutes: ** (gnome-printer-view:16910): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1280 5. Try to print a page from openoffice.org 2.0.2. Result: Openoffice.org 2.0.2 crashes. Need to "force quit". 6. Try to print a page from Firefox 1.5.0.3. Result: Firefox 1.5.0.3crashes. Need to "force quit". Comment: Basically the same result as last time with breezy. On the other hand, I do not need to add "servername ipadress" to client.conf anymore, so it is not an issue for me now. Looks like the Cups version of Ubuntu Dapper detects network printers more easily. Scenario 2: 1. Did not add anything to client.conf. Just started gnome-cups-manager. Detected the LAN-printer automatically. 2. Print a page from Firefox and Openoffice.org without firewall blocking port 631 on the server. Result: OK. 3. Print a page from Firefox and Openoffice.org when firewall blocking port 631 on the server. Result: No crash of Firefox and Openoffice.org. No error message within 15 minutes, even if it failed to print. Comment: It does not seem to crash Firefox and Openoffice.org when I did not edit the client.conf by myself. On the other hand it should, in a perfect world, have returned an error message.
