Client Does Not Print After Installation

Support knowledgebase (mmichna_cups_client)
Applies to

SuSE Linux: Version 8.2

Symptom

When configuring the printer during the installation, the server is detected and marked as available. However, the printer cannot be addressed after the installation.

Cause

The configuration has not been saved during the installation.

Solutions


Alternative approach:

The default installation also allows you to run CUPS as a server instead of the client-only configuration. The pros and cons of the client-only configuration and CUPS as a server are described in the Administration Guide and in the article http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/jsmeix_print-einrichten-81.html.

If you want to run CUPS as a server but you do not have a local printer, activate the service CUPS:
