Another question relating to my use of Mandrake Single Network Firewall
7.2 as a dialup gateway:
I would like to use it as a print server as well. I have installed
cups from the Mandrake ftp site (version 1.1.7-2.2mdk, which was
listed as the update for Mandrake 7.2).
The printer works, for example:
ls -l > /dev/lp0
prints a directory listing perfectly.
However, when I try to install a trusty dot-matrix printer:
/usr/bin/lpadmin -p KXP1123 -E -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m
/usr/share/cups/model/Panasonic/KX-P1123-epson.ppd
I get the following error:
lpadmin: add-printer failed: client-error-not-found
Using cups' web interface, I get a screen saying that the printer was
installed sucessfully, but then it's not there when I go to look at
printers (I expect the same error is occuring, I just don't get to
see the message).
I've searched through the newsgroups for this error message, but
haven't found any answer. Has anyone else solved such a problem?
It's not addressed in the cups documentation.

PS: Mandrake 7.2 SNF uses kernel 2.2.19 I also have samba
(2.0.7-18mdk) installed and it works perfectly.
