I'm a dumb user.
I'm on the latest Ubuntu (Linux cpbl-thinkpad 2.6.38-11-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 12 21:17:25 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
I tried to add a printer (System->Admin->Printing->Add->Find NetworkPrinter
That searched. Up came a Xerox WC 5638 apparently hosted on a colleague's Macintosh. I click on that and get told it's a "Remote CUPS printer via DNS-SD".
I click Forward, am prompted for name, description, location. I fill those out and click Apply.
up pops:
CUPS server error: There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-possible'
This is repeatable.
Desperately,
c
