Hi,
The program to forward some local port at the client end to the server port 631 works fine. Able to print too. But we only get this(even if we give some print command):
Client:
POST / HTTP/1.1
Content-Length: 238
Client:
Content-Type: application/ipp
Host: 0.0.0.0
@
Server:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server:

Server:
Server: CUPS/1.1
Server:
Connection: Keep-Alive
Keep-Alive: timeout=60
Content-Language: en_US
Content-Type: application/ipp; charset=utf-8

Could you tell us how to get those details.
Thank You,
