How to restrict which printers are shared using IPP, CUPS v1.1.23

Michael, I setup the:

<Location  /printers/HPLaser>
Order Deny, Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>

After doing this I restarted the cupsd process and all remote systems could not print to the printer, which is what I want.  However, I noticed by looking in the log files that the client was still trying to transmit the print job to the server even though the server replied with an error 403.  I am assuming this is a client configuration issue.  That is the purpose of this post, I could not find anything in your book and how to solve this issue.  So my question is, how can I configure the client such that when they receive an error 403 they will not attempt to retransmit the print job?

Thank you again for your help.

Rick
