Hi,

I have question to similar topic.

Any idea what can be problem here?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512866

Print server is cups on el4.  Clients have cups not running and ServerName set
in /etc/cups/client.conf.  A printer class is defined on the server but query
commands on F11 don't recognize the printer.

'lpstat -t' shows the class, but 'lpq -Pclass' reports "Unknown destination".
The class is set as default but 'lpstat -t' reports "no system default
destination" and lpq similarly.

In spite of that lpr will print to the printer class successfully.

Version-Release number: cups-1.4-0.b2.18.fc11
Works fine with cups-1.3.10-5.fc10

Thank you
