Hi!

Sorry for taking so long...

I have disabled encryption by typing "DefaultEncryption Never" to /etc/ 
cups/cupsd.conf.
Now https don´t work at all, but I can administrate the printers  
remote on the website.
The Mac-Server hangs up, because I install all printers by using the  
"JetDirect"-Protocol. (don´t know why ...) Now I changed the protocol  
of all Printers to ipp. It works!

Thanks!

regards, uli
