Hey Rick & all,

Well, I tried just using the machine with the 
printer's IP address, 192.168.0.7, and still to no 
avail.

I think the problem may be on the machine with the 
printer not making it available to other machines.

I tried changing cupsd.conf to the following:

<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 192.168.0.*
</Location>

Does this look like a proper setting to allow the 
printer to be accessed by other machines?

Skip
