I have installed the Fink,foos, and Ghostscript on  PowerPPC iMac running Mac OS 10.4.11.
I have a Minolta color laser printer attached to a Linksys Print Server with the IP 192.168.1.106.
I setup two printers using the CUPS http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/ web interface. One uses the Device URI: socket://192.168.1.106:35 and the other uses the Device URI: lpd://192.168.1.106/lp.
Both get errors when printing the test page from the web interface. The former's error msg - Network host '192.168.1.106' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds..." and the latter's error msg - "recoverable: Network host '192.168.1.106' is busy, down, or unreachable; will retry in 30 seconds..."  .

What can I try to troubleshoot?
